Georgia Wine Festival

Imagine walking through a beautiful and romantic vineyard, the smells of decadent food wafting on the cool summer breeze, indie bluegrass music playing through the hills of the northwest Georgia mountains. All this beauty and fun, and only an hour north of Atlanta.

This year, the Three Sisters Vineyard and Winery is hosting the 9th annual Georgia Wine Country Festival on June 5th and 6th. The festival gives attendees the opportunity to visit a working farm winery and vineyard. For the art enthusiasts, John “Cornbread” Anderson will be showing off his folk art. Attendees can purchase local honey and blueberries from Allison’s Honey Farm. Wagon rides down the roads of the vineyard will be horse drawn, and given by wrangler and singing cowboy Les Strader. If that wasn’t enough, Treasures Within is presenting a cigar tent. Besides bluegrass, music enthusiasts will enjoy listening to every kind of music from folk to classic rock on the Crush Pad Deck. On Saturday be ready to experience Appalachian Saint Andrew's Pipe & Drum Corps, The Georgia Waybacks, and Route 66. Can’t make it Saturday? That’s okay! Sunday is just as good! Cindy Musselwhite Family Bluegrass Band and The Buzzard Mountain Boys will hit the stage.

Tickets are available at the gate, and will be twenty dollars each, which includes: wine tastings, a keepsake wineglass and all the fantastic entertainment. So remember, the first weekend of June; 10:30 AM to 6PM on Saturday, and 11 AM to 6 PM Sunday. Come for the food, the cheesecake, the wine, the view, and the smiles. See you there!

Don’t live in Georgia and can’t make it? We’ll miss you. But you can check your local state for wine tastings and music festivals.
