Virginia wines from Morais Vineyards of Bealeton hosting a five-course, fall wine dinner with Carmello’s of Old Town Manassas, Va. on Thurs., Oct. 24 at 6:30 p.m. Menu items highlight Caremello’s new fall menu, including clam cataplana, braised rabbit and beef short rib.

Wonderful evening! My husband and I dined at Carmello’s and we were thoroughly delighted! Our server, Chris, was very attentive and gave us excellent advice regarding the menu. The mini beef wellington appetizer was flaky and tender.
