“There are many attractive wines made in Virginia, but what marks de Vink’s wines out is their density, without heaviness or marked alcohol. I suspect they will have a long and glorious life and, doubtless, raise the bar for other vignerons in the native state of America’s most famous wine-loving president.”

Marden House designed by Frank Lloyd Wright
The Marden House was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1952 fpr the National Geographic photographer Luis Marden. Situated in McLean, Virginia, on a bluff overlooking the Potomac River, this astonishing house was completed in 1959 at a cost of $76,000, which would be roughly equivalent to $800K today. The house was acquired by AOL founder Jim Kinsey and was about to be demolished when a casual remark about Frank Lloyd Wright's aesthetics convinced Kimsey to remodel, which brought Dan Donnelly into the picture, and into the credits of the New York Times Magazine story about the renovation.
