WINE SAMPLING - Here's how it works: During the festival, bring your ticket to the gate, and you will receive a wine glass and twelve sampling tickets. Each ticket equals one wine taste of any wine from any of our participating wineries - a $20 value in addition to festival admission! Tickets can also be used for full glasses (5 tickets). Once your tickets are used, your general admission during the day of your visit for music, seminars and activities. Additional tastings, wines by the glass and wines by the bottle are available for additional ticket purchases.

Additional tastes are $1 and wines by the glass will vary in price. Cash and Credit Cards are accepted for tasting and wine by the glass: several ATMs will be available in the area.

The wine glass will need to be brought back on any subsequent visits or replacement glasses may be purchased at the gate.
