Harvest Festival Events
Posted 8/23/2010 6:50pm by John Weygandt.
September 25th & 26th and October 2nd & 3rd
Experience the sights and smells of harvest as the Brandywine Valley Wine Trail celebrates the 2010 vintage!
You’ll find grapes galore as we commence harvest activities.
Here at Stargazers we will have artisan cheese from God's County Creamery, lavender products and chocolate truffles from Fat Spike Lavender Company and, of course, our full range of wines, all to sample and purchase.
We will also be holding a Blending Workshop at 1 p.m. for $5
Here you will learn what/how/when/why grapes are selected for blending to achieve a delectable tasting wine. So bring your nose and taste buds along with your imagination and perhaps help the winemaker fashion some of our upcoming releases.
Wine tastings are $5 for 5 samples or you can purchase a Passport online or at any of the 8 Brandywine Valley Wine Trail member wineries. Passports allow for tastings at all 8 member wineries and are valid September 25 through December 30, 2010.
We have plenty of tables and chairs so please feel free to bring your own food or simply purchase a plate of cheese, perhaps a truffle or two and some wine and enjoy a relaxing afternoon picnic in a beautiful location.
Wine is also available for purchase by the glass or bottle.

On September 26th after 5 pm, Flipside Catering will offer an Evolutionary Eating Experience.
