    We met Gary, the owner of Mazzaroth Vineyard, quite by accident in Chevy Chase on one of our…read moreexploration Saturdays. My then-fiancé suggested we visit Uncorked again, and when we saw a sign outside saying "free wine tasting," that was all the convincing we needed. Fast forward to what turned out to be such a fun afternoon. Somewhere between tasting the wines and conversations about how Gary left a high-flying career as an air traffic controller to start a vineyard, and how he met his wonderful wife Micki when they were just 8 years old, we knew we needed more. So naturally, we booked a private wine tasting for our honeymoon week. And what an experience. We got to meet Leo, his dog, taste some truly beautiful wines and spend a few hours just talking about life. I could say a lot about Gary's wines and the many gold and silver awards they have won, but strangely, that is not what stayed with us the most. What impressed us was Gary. His passion for life, the way he speaks about his wife, his integrity and just how grounded he is. There was nothing rehearsed or "wine tasting checklist" about the experience. It genuinely felt like spending an afternoon with an old friend who happened to have some very good wine. As newlyweds, we somehow also walked away with marriage advice, thoughts on finding balance in life, and plenty of inspiration for a future trip to Portugal, helped by the fact that Gary speaks Portuguese and clearly gave us more ideas than we needed! I have been fortunate enough to do wine tastings in several places across different continents, but I do not think I have ever left one feeling quite like this. Gary is one of those wholesome people who seems to have found his light in life, and there is something quite special about being around that. If you are looking for a polished, mainstream, tick-the-box wine tasting, this probably is not it. But if you want great wine, wonderful conversation and an experience that feels personal and genuine, go and meet Gary. And yes, the wine did its job too. We are now comfortably travelling back to Lusaka, Zambia, with five bottles destined for our cellar. I think that says enough.

    There's nothing bad I can say about the food. The food was decent. Servers was very good at…read moreatmosphere was inviting.
