Before we all arrive in Fredericksburg, a little advance work was required … and Jeff Jorgensen graciously volunteered for the assignment!
Jeff's Winery Scouting Tours.mp4The video is a glimpse into his “Winery Scouting Tour”—a not-so-tough job that involved visiting, tasting, exploring, and narrowing down some wonderful options for our group. It gives you a feel for the experience that awaits—beautiful hill country views, relaxed atmospheres, and, of course, some very good wine.
As you watch, keep in mind: these aren’t just random stops—they’re part of a thoughtfully considered plan to make our time together both relaxed and memorable.
A lot of options follow throughout this Guide to Fredericksburg, but for now… enjoy the preview!
