Attend a winery event or wine festival this weekend. Keep a bottle or two of water with you. If attending an outdoor wine festival use sunscreen, drink lots of water, and try to stay cool! If you are planning to purchase wine, plan a way to keep the wine cool while traveling. Wine and hot cars don’t mix!
Festivals with websites are listed below the list of individual winery events. Enjoy.

Cheers! Kathy
