It’ll be wine o’clock all afternoon in Yorktown on October 5! Whether you’re a wine connoisseur or a novice, join us for a beautiful fall day as you enjoy a glass of vino and spectacular views of the York River.

Yorktown shares more than just history with our sister cities Zweibrücken and Port-Vendres. In a nod to both countries, you can sample Rieslings and Gewürztraminers from Germany and indulge bubbly from France—the only place where true champagne is created! Ooh la la!

Along with this grand tasting of wines from Virginia and beyond, you can enjoy live music, delicious food from local restaurants, and the work of talented artisans. That’s Riesling to celebrate!

This is a closed-ticketed only event. Everyone must purchase a ticket to enter the event area. There will be a limited number of non-drinking tickets available this year. No outside food, drink, tables, tents, or umbrellas. Unopened bottled water and a small folding lawn chair will be permitted. Service pets only. Proceeds benefit York Foundation for Public Education, Sister Cities Yorktown, and other local nonprofits.
