Love In The Making: Valentine's WineMaking Experience & Dinner

Join us for a truly unforgettable night of romance, creativity, and winemaking.

This Valentine’s Day, create a unique and lasting memory by crafting your very own special wine alongside someone meaningful to you. Enjoy an intimate evening featuring a hands-on winemaking experience, a romantic dinner, and a curated selection of wines and meads to set the mood.

The evening begins at 6:00 PM with a guided wine blending experience, where you’ll taste a variety of wines and create a custom blend of your own. Each couple will fill, cork, seal, and label a bottle to take home that night — a perfect keepsake of your evening together.

• Wine blending experience: Taste wines from our vats and create your own special blend to take home.
• Hands-on winemaking: Choose from White, Red, Fruit, or Dessert wine styles
• Grape Stomping Contest: A playful competition to crown the juiciest winemakers of the night
• Dinner for two, thoughtfully designed to complement the experience
• Second date night: When your wine is ready in 6 to 8 weeks, balance and bottle your wine. Add optional custom labels and make another vat.

Each couple will produce their own personalized vat of wine, yielding approximately 25–30 bottles, ready to bottle in 6–8 weeks.
