Description

Two 2-Day Event Tickets for Passport to Dry Creek Valley


Enjoy a pair of 2-Day Event Tickets for Passport to Dry Creek Valley!


Created in 1990 by the Winegrowers of Dry Creek Valley, Passport is a time every year when the winegrowing community celebrates the generations of farmers, vintners and families that are the roots of the Dry Creek Valley wine region. The event is now a tradition among wine lovers who enjoy a world-class tasting experience with a festive twist, all within the idyllic Dry Creek Valley.


Over one weekend, Passport guests are welcomed into 45+ wineries throughout Dry Creek Valley, each offering a unique pairing of premium wine, gourmet food and entertainment. Take a vineyard tour, sample exclusive vintages, meet winemakers and grapegrowers, savor exquisite food and wine pairings from acclaimed chefs, discover each winery’s unique Passport “theme,” a tradition of the event. The possibilities are as varied as the wineries themselves and promise a fun, unforgettable weekend. Enjoy!


Sparkling Wine Medley from Amista Vineyards!


The following sparkling wines are included in this lot from Amista:



  • Sparkling Blanc de Blanc - New Release!


'...fruity aromas, such as lemon meringue pie and crisp green apple, well balanced by a rich yeastiness.'



  • Sparkling Grenache - Usually 'Club Members Only'!


'...a delicate blush pink. The aromas are just as beautiful and delicate: delicious yeasty strawberry notes with hints of lemon zest.  The palate is round and lush, with a bright acidity to balance out the fullness.'



  • Sparkling Syrah - Usually 'Club Members Only'!


'...deep pink wine...soft, lingering aromas of fresh, ripe strawberries, bright cherries, and just a hint of Syrah spice.  On the palate, the tiny bubbles dance on the tongue, with flavors of sweet strawberry, raspberry and a hint of lemony citrus.' - Amista Vineyards
