Winds and Wine Festival

Well....The first big festival of the year is in the books for Tarara Winery. The weather was beautiful on Saturday creating a great success of the day. Although we had some early rainfall on Sunday some brave souls still made their way to our concert field for some great wine, food, music, and overall fun.

We hosted the festival for the first time in our concert field overlooking Shadow Lake and in the shade of the trees. It was truly a beautiful setting and a true testament to what Whitie Hubert has given our team to work with and how great an event our Tarara team can put on. From talking to the many people that visited us this weekend we were not the only people that felt it was a beautiful success. I want to personally thank each and every one of you that joined us for this great weekend.

I had a great time talking to a few of our wine club members as well. It was an overwhelming response to how much everyone enjoyed their VIP seating looking down at the concert stage while sipping some of our new release wines. We were very happy to see such a turn out from our club members and look forward to seeing them all again at Blackberry Days , Great Grape, and the Concert Series.

Another great addition to our festival was the release of the greatly anticipated Pinot Gris and Viognier from the destined to be legendary 2007 vintage. These two wines were huge hits showing that our only problem with them is that we may not have made enough. As always though our flagship Meritage was also an incredible hit among the couple of thousand of people that joined us this weekend.

It really was a great way to end the week that was full of rain and gloomy days that preceded our weekend. Everyone was happy to be outside, full of life, and enjoying one of the premiere festivals Loudoun County has to offer. We all enjoyed Tarara Winery's Winds and Wine Festival and look forward to seeing you again at the next event Tarara offers.
