Winter Wine Weekends!

Back by popular demand, two choices of dates this year!

January 27-29, 2006 and March 3-5, 2006

The Inn at Sugar Hollow Farm, The Foxfield Inn, and the Inn at Monticello proudly present two Winter Wine Weekends in Charlottesville, Virginia.

January 27-29, 2006
White Hall Vineyards and the Ivy Inn Restaurant

The first weekend kicks off with a wine tasting of selected White Hall wines and light hors d'oeuvres at the inn of your choice on Friday night. Your special weekend includes your two night stay at the inn followed by a delicious full breakfast each morning. Saturday will be spent at a VIP tasting and tour of White Hall Vineyards until early afternoon. The remainder of the day will be free for fun and relaxation in the Charlottesville area.

Saturday night we will enjoy a very special White Hall Vineyards wine dinner at the Ivy Inn restaurant -- six courses accompanied by White Hall wines. Transportation to and from dinner will be provided. The weekend will wrap up with a full breakfast at the inn on Sunday morning. The Ivy Inn and White Hall Winery were spotlighted in December 2004 at The James Beard House in New York City, a prestigious showcase of accomplished chefs.

March 3-5, 2006
Veritas Vineyard and Winery

The second weekend begins with a wine tasting of selected Veritas wines and light hors d'oeuvres at the inn of your choice on Friday night. Your special weekend includes your two night stay at the inn followed by a delicious full breakfast each morning. Saturday will be spent at a VIP tasting and tour of Veritas Winery until early afternoon. The remainder of the day will be free for exploring Jefferson's Monticello, the shops on the Historic Downtown Mall using the free trolley service, or perhaps just relaxing at your inn.

Saturday night features an exciting wine tasting dinner at Veritas Vineyards with a five course dinner (complete menu available upon request) featuring seared beef tenderloin specially prepared by Veritas' Chef Laid Rhafiri (Born in Casablanca, trained in Florence for 5 years) with each course accompanied by select Veritas wines.
