HOLIDAY & VINES: SPECIAL CHRISTMAS MOVIES EDITION

Fall 2018 Iowa Wine Trail Weekend Wine & Food Event

 

Saturday, November 3 (10a-6p)

Sunday, November 4 (10a-5p)

 

 

The Iowa Wine Trail is rolling out the red carpet for our first ever “Hollywood and Vines” wine and food event on the weekend of November 3-4.  We love the movies and each one of our eleven wineries has selected a film as their inspiration for a wonderful wine-food pairing! 

 

 

 

At each winery wine lovers will be able to enjoy specially prepared (and Hollywood film inspired) foods paired with award winning, locally crafted wines. Plan to sample the food and wine at each of the Iowa Wine trail wineries.

More Fun: We encourage you to dress up as one of your favorite characters (from the above listed movies) for a chance to win free tickets to a future event. (note: maximum of 4 tickets to be given away).

Tickets are now on sale!
