in the Wine Country. Many of these wineries are
not open at any other time during the year. Festivities
include tasting of new releases and older vintages,
barrel tastings, specialty foods and sales of
limited quantity wines. Some wineries have live
music and some charge a tasting fee. Winemakers
and owners will personally greet their guests.
Memorial Weekend in the Wine Country information will be mailed at the beginning of May. Wine Country Thanksgiving information will be sent at the beginning of November.
