Description
This year’s Labor Day Weekend, August 29-31, plays host to Sonoma Wine Country Weekend, Wine Country’s premier wine and food festival, combining the best of the Sonoma County Showcase of Wine and Food and the Sonoma Valley Harvest Wine Auction. Sonoma Wine Country Weekend features more than 200 wineries and chefs over 3 days of fabulous winemaker lunches and dinners, a grand tasting, and an exciting wine auction renowned for its wild themes and winemaker skits. Winemaker lunches and dinners will be hosted Friday and Saturday night at several prominent wineries including Ferrari-Carano, Gallo Family Vineyards and Francis Ford Coppola, where guests can meet the actual winemakers in an intimate setting. Saturday afternoon is the main tasting event with over 110 wineries and 60 premier chefs from the region at breathtaking MacMurray Ranch (normally closed to the public). On Sunday, the weekend ends with a bang at Cline Cellars, host to the Harvest Wine Auction.
