Veraison Vineyard Walk 2026 | Wine Club Member Event

Friday, August 21, 2026 | 3:30 PM

Experience one of the most exciting moments of the growing season during our Veraison Vineyard Walk, when the grapes are nearing perfect ripeness and harvest is just around the corner.

Join Nancy and the Red Tail Ridge Winery team for a guided walk through the vineyard as you explore the vines, learn about each grape variety, and discover how the 2026 growing season is shaping the wines to come. Along the way, you’ll taste wines produced from the featured varietals while hearing firsthand about the unique characteristics that influence each vintage.

After the vineyard tour, we’ll gather at the Pavilion for a relaxed happy hour featuring seasonal snacks, additional wine tastings, and plenty of time to ask questions while taking in the beautiful vineyard views.

Whether you’re a longtime wine enthusiast or simply curious about the winemaking process, this experience offers the perfect blend of education, wine, food, and the beauty of the Finger Lakes.

  • Guided vineyard walk with Nancy Irelan and the Red Tail Ridge team
  • Educational discussion about grape varietals and the growing season
  • Wine tastings throughout the experience
