Well Hung Festival Weekend – Montpelier and Crozet!

Hey folks! This weekend is going to be huuuge, and we hope as many of you as possible can see us at one of the two festivals we’re attending!

One of our favorite twice-a-year events is this Saturday and Sunday, May 7th and 8th – the Crozet Arts & Crafts Festival. Pick up some art (or crafts!) for Mother’s Day (you didn’t forget, did you?) along with your bottle of wine! All of our varietals will be for sale, and many will be available for tasting. Our full line up of shirts, hats, aprons, posters, yada yada yada, will also be for sale and on display. Just look for our spokesmannequin, Richard. (He’s the one who’s a mannequin.)

Also this weekend is what may very well be our biggest festival to date. The Montpelier Wine Festival is Saturday and Sunday and features 24 Virginia vineyards and wineries, demonstrations on cooking with food and wine, music, artisans, and kites! Honestly, I’m not sure what the kites are about, but the website says they’ll be there and I think it’s pretty exciting. There’s still time to buy a ticket in advance for $15, but they’re just $25 at the door – well worth the quality of the event.

It’s going to be a beautiful weekend, so get out and enjoy some wine. Crozet, Montpelier, your back yard, wherever, as long as it’s Well Hung.

Cheers!
