Open House Wine Tasting

Our Forks & Corks Wine Tasting Open House in the Wine Cellar from 2-4 pm is an indulgence on a whole other level. This once-a-year open house is a unique opportunity to meet winemakers and winery owners from around the world; plus, of course, taste the wines that are their true pride and joy! We then top off all of that glorious wine tasting (more than 50 different wines!) with a buffet of savory lite bites! It’s a party atmosphere you won’t want to miss!
