At the Vineyard |
Last Friday with Dave Minninberg
5:00 to 9:00 p.m. today. Come on up and sit on the other side of the bar for a while.
Best Vineyard
The wine drinkers of Loudoun -- our customers -- have voted us Best Vineyard in the county! That's because of our great wine, and our great venue, and because all of you make people glad to be here. Thanks for doing that.
New POS Coming Soon
We're moving forward with the Orderport point of sale system. Implementation is expected to take four weeks, so watch for training sessions some time toward the end of March.
Visiting Brides
Visit Loudoun is promoting a self-guided wedding venue tour on Sunday, March 13 from noon to 6:00. Should be a big day!
