Virginia vs. France 25 for $25!

Mon Ami Gabi is a great little French restaurant in Reston Town Center. They have a good selection of French wines and really good crepes (amongst other foods).

They are hosting a France vs. Virginia wine tasting...featuring wines from some of their importers. It should be a really fun night:

"Mon Ami Gabi offers wine enthusiasts an evening with the area’s premier wine importers representing both France and Virginia wines. Taste 25 wines for $25, evening includes wine tasting guide and light French fare."

Please note, you have to register and pay in advance if you want to go.

When you register let them know you are with the Virginia Wine Club. I'll try to get a list of wines for you all prior to the event!

It appears the event is all sold out, so if you have not gotten tickets, there aren't any more to be had. I talked to Tom on Friday and they sold through all of their tickets a lot faster than they expected. He did provide me a list of the wines:
