Kick off your holiday festivities with a little wining and shopping! The Cayuga Lake Wine Trail hosts the 22nd annual Holiday Shopping Spree for two weekends, November 20-22 and December 4-6, 2015. The popular event is a great chance to visit wineries, taste their wines—and maybe pick up a bottle or several as gifts.
16 wineries are participating this year, and when you purchase a ticket for either weekend (good for Friday through Sunday), you’ll have a chance to visit some of the top wine producers in the area, including Swedish Hill, Treleaven by King Ferry, Americana Vineyards and Six Mile Creek Vineyard.
Each ticketed guest will receive a souvenir wine glass and grapevine wreath, plus a special ornament from each participating winery. At each stop you’ll enjoy tastings of wine, along with a festive dish, and receive a copy of the recipe. You’ll also receive a Shopper’s Discount Card that’s good for a discount at each winery during the event.
Just four wineries will be participating on Fridays (King Ferry, Long Point, Montezuma and Six Mile creek), but all 16 will take part on Saturdays and Sundays. Visitors can start the day’s tour at any of the participating wineries. Tickets are good for the entire weekend, and include one visit to each winery. Holiday Shopping Spree
