Learn About Spring Wine Festival And Sunset Tour At Mount Vernon

Mount Vernon’s Spring Wine Festival and Sunset Tour celebrates the history of wine in Virginia with exclusive evening tours of the Mansion and cellar, appearances by “George and Martha Washington,” and live jazz on the east lawn overlooking the scenic Potomac River. Visitors can bring a blanket and relax on the lawn as they sample wines from 20 Virginia wineries. During tours of the Mansion, don't forget to visit the cellar where Washington stored his wine and learn about the successes and failures of our Founding Father’s endeavors with wine. All proceeds benefit the ongoing preservation and restoration of Mount Vernon and its educational programs. To accompany the wine tasting, fruit and cheese boxes will be available by advance purchase at the festival. Outside food and beverages are not allowed. Reserved tables that seat twelve are available. These tables include a fruit, cheese, and meat platter, a dessert platter, three bottles of house wine, and VIP table service.
