2100 Prime Participates in 

Virginia's Love by the Glass Promotion


Only Washington, DC Restaurant Participating

 

2100 Prime, home of the Capital Wine Festival, is participating in Virginia's Wine & Dine month, "Wine & Dine logo", throughout the month of March. Virginia's Wine & Dine Month, with its Love by the Glass promotion, is a celebration that showcases Virginia wines at more than 500 participating restaurants and wine shops across Virginia. Virginia, home to more than 200 wineries statewide, is fifth in the nation for wineries and for wine grape production and was recently named one of the 10 best wine travel destinations for 2012 by Wine Enthusiast Magazine. 2100 Prime is the only Washington, DC restaurant participating out of 116 restaurants.

 

Virginia's Wine & Dine Month represents an opportunity to expand local wine offerings in restaurants and shops. As Virginia's reputation for wine excellence continues to grow, so does demand for the product. 2100 Prime supports buying local and carries five Virginia wines on the wine list:

 

Barboursville Vineyards, Cabernet Franc     $13/glass; $54/bottle

Barboursville Vineyards, Viognier    $13/glass; $50/bottle

Tarara Winery, Chaval      $10/glass; $35/bottle

Tarara Winery, Long-Bomb   $10/glass; $35/bottle

Boxwood Estate, Topiary     $58/bottle

 

2100 Prime, fairly new to the Washington, DC restaurant scene, was formerly The Jockey Club. In August 2011, the concept, all American, natural and inspired, was launched and has been well received by the Washington food community. 2100 Prime is home of the Capital Wine Festival, which takes place January - March each year.
