October is such a fun month, with fall in full swing and Halloween just around the corner. However, it is also Virginia Wine Month! Virginia has many vineyards and produces some of the best wine in the country not far from our historic city of Manassas. Check out some ideas below for how to celebrate Virginia Wine Month here at Arcadia Run!

Wine Wednesday at Arcadia Run

Don’t have time to drive to different wineries in Virginia? No worries! We host Wine Wednesday’s at our beautiful clubhouse right here at Arcadia Run every other week. Sample different wines from around the region, brush up on your wine knowledge, and get to know your fellow neighbors! Even better news: Wine Wednesday is this week! Grab a friend and head to the clubhouse from 6pm-8pm and start celebrating Virginia Wine Month.

Host Your Own Wine Night

One of the best ways to celebrate Virginia Wine Month is to host your own wine night! Our spacious apartments are perfect for gatherings with friends and family. Invite a few of your friends over and have everyone bring a different bottle of local Virginia wine. This way, you’ll be able to sample a variety of Virginia wines and even some that you might not have picked out yourself!

Friends at the Fire Pit

These cool autumn nights are perfect to spend at the fire pits at Arcadia Run. Cozy up with a blanket and a bottle of wine in front of the fire to celebrate Virginia Wine Month. Chat with people around the fire, and maybe even get recommendations about different types of wine to try.

Events

If you’re looking to get out and experience Virginia Wine Month, there are plenty of events and activities going on around the area! Check out the official Virginia Wine Month list of events and see which ones pique your interest. Many wineries are offering specials when you purchase wine, food specials, and even live music! Make sure to tag any pictures using #OctVAWineMonth to get featured by Virginia Wine!
