Going “Sideways” on I95 Just South of the Beltway
March 10th, 2008 categories: Entertainment
You been out with the same clients for two weeks, up and down the Interstate 95, battling traffic, seen over sixty homes (I mean, why not, there are so many choices…..and, there are all those good deals they just have to see!) and you’ve finally had a contract ratified on the fourth REO property you’ve written on. Now your clients would like to relax a bit, and have asked you where you can go to unwind. So, what’s a Realtor to do? Outside of the typical eateries, what’s there to do? A new offering you’ve got to try, just off the Interstate, north of Stafford, to relax and enjoy the tastes of Northen Virginia, is Potomac Point Winery http://www.potomacpointwinery.com/index.php.
While Northern Virginia doesn’t offer quite the same variety of choices you may have seen in the 2004 Oscar winning movie “Sideways“, which, you may recall, involved a “road trip” through California’s wine country, you can find some very appealing local wineries with wine choices to suit just about anyone. Additionally, Virginia’s temperate climate, and scenic countryside make an afternoon at Potomac Point more than just a stop for lunch. And, besides, aren’t we all looking for that refuge from the everyday hustle and bustle of life? (What we wouldn’t do for a few minutes of peace and quiet!)
Since their Grand Opening last July, many locals have taken advantage of the fine wines offered at the the Point. There are a variety of choices for everyone’s taste, including:
- Norton
- Viogenier (gold medal)
- Rabelos & Vidal Blanc dessert wines
- Cabernet Franc
- Bordeaux, Italian & Portuguese styled red wines
- Chardonnay (gold medal)
Fortunately, the Point doesn’t end with wine tasting. You can also enjoy their assorted olive oils available for tasting, or the appealing soups and sandwiches available. Finally, for groups, special arrangements are possible for private get togethers on the grounds, or catered service if you so desire.
While house hunting, the I95 traffic can sometimes get the best of us. The Potomac Point Winery is just “A Step Away From Your Everyday”. So, once that contract is signed, sealed and delivered, treat yourself to an enjoyable few minutes of relaxation at Potomac Point Winery. For wine lovers, or just those that like a place to get away from it all, the Point is an ideal refuge.
