The Birth of American Wine: From Colonial Cellars to Modern Vineyards
7/14/2026 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM EST
Event Description
Long before Napa was on anyone's map, America had its own grape. This dinner opens where American wine truly begins — in the Virginia soil Jefferson himself cultivated — and travels through 250 years of ambition, heartbreak, triumph, and reinvention. Seven courses. Seven wines. One unbroken story.
The tasting includes sparkling wine, whites, reds and a fortified wine all with paired tasting plates. The event will begin at 6 pm with a social period. The presentation will begin around 6:30 pm.
