Toast the Season
October 26th, 2005
If you want an atypical way to spend a weekend (or two) in November, take a trip up into Michigan for the Leelanau Peninsula Vintners’ Toast the Season event. It is a great way to see some gorgeous countryside in our northern neighbor as well as appreciate some truly remarkable wines.
The celebration covers November 12 & 13 and November 19 & 20 and your starting winery is given to you when you purchase your tickets. The event will run you $35/person or $60/couple plus fuel. Food is provided at your stops and you also receive wine glasses (one per person), a grapevine wreath and/or ornament (stocking stuffers!).
Traveling tastings like this are usually very well prepared and a great way to spend a weekend. They give you a very good plan on how to sample many different wines and also note the differences between regions and wineries. It’s a good thing!
