Passport Weekends
Welcome Spring each Year

During two glorious weekends in March or April each year, 25 El Dorado wineries host the region’s annual Passport wine and food event.

Passport Weekends feature plenty of luscious wine and food pairings, barrel tastings, enjoyable art and music, and fun-loving participants. Warm weather and green surroundings along the wine trail add to the excitement of this springtime event. Learn more.

Harvest Celebration

El Dorado's Harvest Celebration, planned for Sept. 13-14, 2008 honors the bountiful fruits of our vineyards and all those who make and enjoy mountain-grown wines.

Visit our wineries for an up-close look at vineyards and celebrate with special tastings, seminars and even grape stomping contests. Come dream with us as we envision another stellar harvest.

Harvest Celebration tickets will be sold online soon.


In January, El Dorado's vintners invite wine enthusiasts to step inside their cellars and sample distinctive wines straight from the barrel.

There's no better way to beat the winter doldrums!
