Tour of the Wineries

 

Sunday, September 20, 2009 • 10:00 am - 5:00 pm

For more than a century, this region has cultivated premium fruit in an ideal, high altitude setting with clear hot days and cool nights. The tradition continues with wine grapes; Mesa and Delta Counties are home to more than 80% of the vineyards in Colorado. During Winefest, it's "crush" – the culmination of the season's hard work. Ripe wine grapes are harvested at the peak balance of flavors, sugars and acids, and processed at the wineries by the winemakers and "cellar rats." Every year on the Sunday following the Festival in the Park, wineries extend a special invitation to spend the day touring the scenic vineyard country. Sample a wide variety of wines, some of which are only available in the tasting rooms. Take a winery tour, see the art of winemaking, and linger for entertainment and appetizers. Bottles and cases of wine are available for purchase (inquire about case discounts).

No tickets are necessary.
