Wineries up and down Dry Creek Valley celebrate the magic of their valley with wine, food, entertainment and the hospitality for which Dry Creek Valley is famous. Many of the wineries create a theme around which they showcase their wine. Some examples of past themes include Mardi Gras, Wizard of Oz, Summer of Love, Surf's Up, Disco, Hollywood, Western, and even the Kentucky Derby. Nearly every winery features live entertainment. From Blues to Jazz to 50's rock and roll, you are certain to be carried away by the festive atmosphere that each winery creates.
