Discover the Terroir: A Maryland and Virginia Wine Journey

Wine lovers don’t have to head far beyond the Beltway to find bottles with a sense of place. Discover the Terroir: A Maryland and Virginia Wine Journey offers a closer look at the region’s evolving wine scene through a guided tasting of five locally crafted wines, with insight from wine expert Leslie Frelow. The afternoon goes beyond tasting notes, exploring how Mid-Atlantic growers work with a challenging climate, changing conditions and the unique character of local vineyards. Held at Hill Center, this is a thoughtful choice for anyone curious about the people shaping the area’s wine culture without committing to a full vineyard trip. It’s approachable for newcomers but still has enough depth for experienced wine drinkers who want to better understand what is being made just outside the city.
