HEARD IT ON THE GRAPEVINE: Yesterday marked the first day on the job for Kathy Morgan , who recently left her position as sommelier at the Italian-themed Tosca (1112 F St. NW; 202-367-1990) for an expanded role at the modern American 2941 (2941 Fairview Park Dr., Falls Church; 703-270-1500). "2941 is such a great opportunity," says Morgan, whose new title is wine director and sommelier. She says her new employer offers "a bigger, more international program" that should be "extremely helpful" as she completes the goal of receiving master sommelier certification. A veteran of the local restaurant scene, Morgan previously worked at Occidental , The Mark (now Andale ) and Asia Nora . The Washington native says she's been interested in wine ever since her father, a Marine Corps officer, shared sips from the cellar he kept in her childhood home.
