FAQs:
If it’s a Wine Walk, why can’t I walk around outside each business with my glass full?
ABC regulations prohibit walking between tasting sites with any wine in your glass. Thank you for either pouring out or consuming at each tasting site before strolling to the next site.
Can I bring my baby or dog?
Sure, you can bring your baby to the wine walk. Please be cautious with strollers. Many of the businesses participating as tasting sites are fairly small. Service animals are always permitted; however, pets are not allowed in any establishment that serves food.
Does my friend who will not be drinking need a ticket?
No, anyone tagging along who will not be tasting wine does not need a ticket.
Refunds:
No Refunds will be given. Event will proceed rain or shine.
