Join us February 10 to 12, 2012 for the First Annual Copper Uncorked Winter Wine Festival, a delicious celebration of fine wine, food and winter recreational activities.

Celebrate Valentines Weekend in any of Copper Mountain's Three Picturesque Villages with a variety of lodging options.


Colorado is renowned for its sunny, blue-sky days along with some of the best powder in the world. Copper is one of Summit County's largest ski areas with over 2,400 skiable acres and averages 280" of snowfall during their ski season.

Copper has something for all ages and abilities. Its naturally divided terrain starts out with gentle, sloping runs on the west side, and gets progressively steeper as you head east. They have several wide-open bowls for advanced skiers and riders. Copper also has the best terrain parks and pipe in Colorado as well as the one of a kind, Woodard at Copper program. This indoor-outdoor freestyle ski and snowboard training program is designed to promote a positive,
safe AND FUN environment to learn the latest freestyle tricks.

The Copper Uncorked Winter Wine Festival aims to be the most attitude-free wine & food festival in the Colorado Rockies. Best of all it will take place in the heart of the Ski Season and during couple friendly Valentine's Day weekend!

Copper Uncorked is produced by Wine Country Network, a leading producer of wine festivals and culinary competitions.
