Choose to start at any participating winery and select the appropriate number of tickets. In order to ensure a smooth check-in, spread out the traffic on the trail and to not overwhelm wineries at the start of the event, we have limited the number of tickets for each "start" location. If your preferred start is not available, choose an alternate and you can visit that one later. A souvenir glass and wine tasting at all participating wineries is included with purchase of event ticket.

Vernon, PaZa, Rancho Roble, Rappé Family Vineyards, Secret Ravine, Smokin' Barrel, Twine Rocks, Viña Castellano and Wise Villa
MAP & ACTIVITIES LIST: Coming Soon/Downloadable at placerwine.com.

RAIN OR SHINE: Note, this event is rain or shine. Refunds will not be given due to weather. Wine Tasting and all the activities the wineries are planning do not require sunshine.
