Throughout the year, member wineries come together to bring you special events. Some of the events enable you to enjoy visiting participating wineries and sampling their wine, paired with food samplings, at your own pace. Others may be special wine tasting opportunities or educational and judging events.
These events require tickets or booklets that can be pre-purchased via this online Shopping Cart using a credit card (Visa/MC, Discover, American Express). You can also place an order on-line and mail us a check or money order to pay for your order (there is a $30 fee for returned checks).
ALL ITEMS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE.
PLEASE NOTE THAT ITEMS IN YOUR SHOPPING CART ARE NOT GUARANTEED UNTIL YOU COMPLETE YOUR ORDER (CHECKOUT)!

*During our special weekend events, to avoid overcrowding and make the events more enjoyable for everyone, a mandatory starting point is assigned for all tickets. You will have the opportunity to select your starting winery when you purchase your tickets. Furthermore, groups should place all ticket orders on the same order to ensure that the same starting point will be available. Groups of 24 or more will be accepted only if routed by the Trail office. We reserve the right to limit the number of large groups and motor coaches purchasing tickets to our events to 4 per day (call us toll-free for more information 877-536-2717).
Many customers ask us why we assign and mandate starting wineries. The reason is quite simple. Without mandated starting wineries, whereby we evenly distribute all ticket holders across the participating wineries, large crowds inevitably form on Saturday morning of an average event at the northern end of the Trail and at the southern end of the Trail. These clusters of excess crowds then tend to flow in one massive clump around the Trail throughout the weekend, causing excessive lines and crowded wineries, diminishing the enjoyment of all participants. So please order group tickets on one order, so you can all be assured of having the same starting winery, and please, literally start your weekend event at your assigned starting winery. We appreciate your cooperation, and trust that all event participants, including you, will have a much more enjoyable, relaxing weekend as a result.
