For our harvest Wine Trail, wineries will need to offer (and list in the program) some sort of fun, "only during harvest" type of opportunity.

Think .....

Tasting different grapes.

Tasting fresh pressed grape juice.

Identifying various grape leaves.

Showing tools/ equipment, such as a refractometer.

Nothing daunting - just a fun insider look at something to do with harvest.

Sign-Up HERE

Tickets on sale August 10

Sip Into The Weekend

We are off and running with our FREE Wine Tasting offers.

Details are on our home page.

Offers run now, through Aug. 29

Social starts this week AND our press release went out last week.

Small posters are on the way, we will be posting those in various locations, and sending them to participating wineries.

Whoo hoo....

We're happy to say we just added 12 new

Wine Road Ambassadors to our website.

They logged on, watched the video, checked out the study guide, took the Quiz - and now we're sending them their very own snazzy Wine Road Ambassador pin.

These folks were from:

California, Texas, Kansas, Oregon, New York and Minnesota.

You could be an Ambassador too - get the scoop HERE
