Join Mount Vernon in its spring celebration of the history of the Virginia wine industry on the east lawn overlooking the Potomac River! Guests sample wines from 16 award-winning Virginia wineries, learn about the successes and failures of our Founding Father’s wine endeavors, enjoy live jazz music, and meet “George Washington” on the Mansion's piazza. Guests experience an evening tour of George Washington's home and are invited to visit the rarely-open basement cellar vaults where he stored his wine.

Concessions by the Mount Vernon Inn are available for purchase. No outside food or beverage allowed. Visitors can purchase tickets at Mount Vernon’s Ford Orientation Center or at MountVernon.org beginning April 1 at 10:00 a.m.
