If you haven’t heard the news, there’s a party at Planet Wine this weekend you don’t want to miss! We’re bringing in the autumn weather with a Fall Pinot Tasting on 10.16!

When we hear Pinot, most of us immediately think of the elegant, cherry-rich red wines popularly grown in France, Willamette Valley, and California. But the world of Pinot goes well beyond Pinot Noir. We've gathered a wide selection of wines from around the world all made from grapes called Pinot. Whether it's the stony minerality of a Pinot Gris, a richly textured Pinot Grigio, a white, rosé, or classic red Pinot Noir, you will find the perfect wine for your fall table!

As always, we're breaking this into two sessions (1-3pm and 4-6pm), so please get your tickets now to secure your preferred time slot. The price is $35 per person and this is arguably one of our most popular tastings of the year, so don't delay. You'll be rewarded with not only a beautiful fall Saturday sipping cool wines with a crew of pros doing the pouring, but you'll enjoy some seriously nice pricing on all of the bottles – just for you and just for the day, so c'mon and let's drink some pinot! 🍷

With summer now simmering, we're stoked to celebrate with the one and only wine that comes to mind as we bid adieu to those less than light days gone by and raise our Rosé-colored glasses to sunny skies ahead. That's right, we're talking about drinking pink!

Join us on Saturday, July 10 outdoors and nicely spaced behind the Post Office building on Mt. Vernon for an informative yet informal tasting that'll include no fewer than 30 of the season's finest Rosés culled from all over the globe, both sparkly and still.

As always, we're breaking this thing into 2 sessions (1-3 pm and 4-6 pm) to keep it all nice and cool, so please get your tickets now to secure your preferred time slot. The price is $35 per person and this is arguably one of our most popular tastings of the year, so please don't delay.
