Celebrate the Harvest 
Passport Wine Tour - November 9, 10 & 11, 2008.

 

 

Below is 2007 tour details.  We will update 2008 event closer to date.

  
 
This year the vineyard and landscaping transforms the winery into autumn with the grape harvest, changing colors of the trees, the scarecrow trail and the "pumpkin wine glass" that greets guests when they arrive.
 

 

The Scarecrow Trail
This year each winery will put its creative grape juices to the test in its own artistic interpretation of the “Wine Scarecrow.” These original works will be boldly displayed for all visitors to see – and vote on! The scarecrow with the most votes at the end of the weekend will be immortalized in “harvest pictures” with creators toasting their masterpiece while dreaming up new ideas for next year’s Scarecrow Trail!  Of course Molly, Libby and I couldn't agree on scarecrow (I'm not surprised... 3 strong headed women), so each of us are making one.
