Foodapalooza celebrates Virginia wine

The annual Foodapalooza event in New Town last weekend, while unusually hot, was a great opportunity to learn about wines and restaurants.

The event featured many Virginia wineries, including high points from Davis Valley winery as well as First Colony Winery.  It also featured a few local restaurants and La Tienda, the Spanish grocery and wine store who noted that the store may be embarking on a Spanish-themed menu and several special events in the near future. 

Below is a slideshow that includes several pictures of the event as well as comments from a couple of the wine vendors.
