Are you looking for something special for your valentine this year? If so, I have a suggestion. Take a drive through the Virginia countryside this week-end to Gray Ghost Vineyards for their fabulous Cabernet and Chocolates.

This is the seventeenth year for this outstanding event which features a dizzying array of chocolate desserts and of course, Gray Ghosts’ award-winning wines. Your very reasonable admission includes unlimited tastings of the featured reds paired with all the chocolate decadence you can handle, plus a souvenir Valentine’s wine glass.

If you want to make a day of it, pack a picnic lunch to enjoy either inside in the Mosby Lounge or outdoors, weather permitting. But keep it light because you’ll want to save room for dessert. Dress is casual, and tours of the winery will be going on all day.

Cabernet and Chocolates – Saturday and Sunday, February 11 and 12, 2012 – snow, rain or shine!

Entry to event: 11:00 am to 4:00 pm, winery open until 5:00 pm

Winery tour schedule for the weekend:
12:00 pm
1:30 pm
3:00 pm

$17 per person
$10 under 21

Gray Ghost is one of my favorite Virginia wineries. The people are friendly, the place is beautiful and the wine is outstanding. Each year their list of awards gets longer. You will certainly want to take home a bottle or two.
