Start at any participating winery, and taste at your own pace.  Visit as many or as few as you like.  Passports are good all weekend so take your time and visit some on Saturday and the rest on Sunday.  Wine is ment to be relaxing not taxing.

 

The Wine Trolley

Don't feel like driving?  Why not take The Wine Trolley.  For only $45.00 per person you will leave Fig Garden Village in front of the Elbow Room at 10:30AM.  Then you will get to visit all 6 winery locations and spend about 1 hour at each to explore all that each of the local wineries has to offer.  When you return to Fig Garden Village at 6:00PM. 

For the low price of $77.00 per person you will get the Wine Trolley, VIP Passport and logo wine glass plus dinner at The Chef's Table (gratuities include - no alcoholic beverages) 

(Sorry the Wine Trolley is reserved for Saturday only.)

 

Stock up on some great wine deals for get togethers, or just restock the wine rack for those special dinners, or a great show on the tube.  Whatever the reason do not miss this fun filled weekend, it only comes around twice a year, and you would have to wait until April before the next one. 

Although if you do prefer a slower pace, most of the wineries are open for tasting every weekend without the food or entertainment. 

 

We look forward to seeing you!
