COMPLIMENTARY WINE & CHEESE TASTING

For this special event we’ve kicked up our complimentary wine tasting with the centuries-old tradition of wine and cheese pairings. We’ve worked hard to create the perfect pairings of our quality wines, with a variety of quality Boar’s Head cheeses. While a wine or a cheese by itself may be great, finding the perfect pairing of wine and cheese can make for a spectacular experience.

LARGE FOOD COURT

We offer a large variety of wine, beer, soft drinks and food for purchase at the event. Our food pavilion features a huge selection of quality food options such as American, Greek, Mexican, Seafood, BBQ, plus wraps and salads. You can also enjoy Wine Slushies, Twistee Treat ice cream, and kettle corn.

MUSIC ON THE OUTDOOR STAGE

We feature some of the area’s top bands on our outdoor stage in a variety of genres such as pop, rock, blues and jazz. Our outdoor stage is surrounded by large Oak trees with beautiful views of our vineyard and rolling hills. So, bring your lawn chairs and blankets and come enjoy the great music.
