LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – The Lake County Winery Association will host its eighth-annual Lake County Wine Adventure this weekend.

Join the adventure form 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, July 28, and Sunday, July 29.

The Wine Adventure Weekend provides a festive atmosphere in which guests can explore Lake County’s “high elevation” wine region, with the county’s stunning scenery – including valley and mountain vineyards, as well as sparkling Clear Lake – as a backdrop.

During this two-day passport-style event, attendees can sample award-winning wines from numerous participating wineries plus mouth-watering hors d’oeuvres.

Held at more than 30 wineries and tasting rooms throughout Lake County, many of the locations offer barrel tastings, music, art exhibits and winery tours.

As part of the event, on Saturday, Shannon Ridge Vineyards & Winery invites the community to join in celebrating the opening of its new tasting room at 13151 E. Highway 20 in Clearlake Oaks. The opening takes place from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

From 11:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. both days of the Wine Adventure, Brassfield Estate Winery will host performances by local musician/songwriters Lindy Day and Native American Music Awards nominee Kevin Village Stone, who will team up with R&B/soul vocalist Kayla Bell.

After visiting participating wineries, wine “tourists” will become eligible for a raffle drawing.

Purchase of two-day Adventure ticket, $45 day of event, includes tasting at participating wineries, a logo wine glass, wristband, and a four bottle wine bag.
