APVSA wine tasting in Washington, DC

Yesterday the APVSA (Association pour la Promotion des Vins et Spiritueux en Amérique du nord) brought the Wine More Time tour to Washington, DC. This special event provided wineries from France, Spain and Portugal the opportunity to showcase their wines to wine writers and wine distributors. The wine tasting tasting took place at Bistro Bis, just a convenient short walk from Union Station.
