What does choosing a winery mean when buying tickets?
When you purchase tickets, selecting a winery simply means choosing your starting location for the event. That winery is where you’ll check in, receive your event materials, and begin your day on the trail.
From there, you’re free to visit the participating wineries in any order you choose, at your own pace, during event hours. All starting wineries offer the same event experience — the choice just helps us manage traffic and ensure a smooth check-in for everyone.
