One Wine Day

Taste at 50 Wineries on the Wine Road

It happens to the best of us: you want to go wine tasting and you end up at a large-scale corporate tasting room. It's time for authentic wine country! It's time for the Wine Road: 50+ small-production and boutique wineries in Russian River Valley, Dry Creek Valley, and Alexander Valley. On May 9, $30 gets you a wristband with special privileges that cover all tasting fees and other offerings, like a library wine tasting, food pairings, vineyard tours—each winery will have something different for you. Check out wineries you haven't been to before, explore vineyards, enjoy barrel samples, and pick your favorites, from barbera to sauvignon blanc. You'll spend the day getting to know wineries that are passionate about what they do and invite you to stay and sip awhile. Pack a picnic and bring a bike to ride between wineries. Even when the day is done, your wristband uncorks more fun! Dine at one of 15 participating restaurants for complimentary corkage with your Sonoma County bottle of wine. May 9: one fine time!

BONUS: Get your $30 ticket to wine tastings and deals galore. On May 9—all roads lead to the Wine Road!
