Lake County Wine Adventure arrives at end of July

LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – The seventh annual Lake County Wine Adventure will soon take place at local wineries throughout Lake County.


The two-day passport style event runs from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, July 30, and Sunday, July 31.


Participating wineries will offer food, wine, music, art displays and agritourism events.


Presented by the Lake County Winery Association, the Wine Adventure will welcome more than 1,200 people from Lake County and neighboring regions.


Wine Adventure brochures are available at Lake County wineries. The event brochure contains all the event information, an adventure map, and a list of all participating wineries.


Tickets will be available for purchase at each participating winery on both days of the Wine Adventure, July 30 and 31. The ticket price the day of the event is $40 each for two days of wine country fun.


Each ticket entitles the holder to a logo glass and recyclable bag, tasting booklet and map, and a raffle ticket.


Every Wine Adventure ticket holder has a chance to win the raffle’s grand prize, a cellar collection of Lake County wines, as well as many other outstanding prizes, says Bonnie Sears, chair of this year’s Wine Adventure.


“The 2011 Wine Adventure raffle drawing has never been better thanks to the Lake County wineries and businesses,” said Sears. Raffle prize winners will be announced shortly following the Wine Adventure event.


A complete list of the local businesses that have contributed raffle prizes this year will be posted at each Wine Adventure winery.


Additional winery donations have been offered by several of the participating wineries. Grand raffle prize is the Lake County Cellar Collection of wines.


Local businesses also played a major part in this year's Wine Adventure, both with the generous donation of great raffle prizes and in the promotion of the event, said Sears.


All printed and promotional materials were designed and printed by Lake County talent.


“We are extremely pleased with the quality of the Wine Adventure support materials,” she said. “The tri-fold brochure is classy and useful. Just wait until you see the tasting booklet on July 30 – people will want to keep it.”


Sears encourages individuals wishing to enjoy this year’s event to buy their tickets early. “Don't miss out on the 2011 Wine Adventure; you’ll have to wait a whole year for the next one.”


The Lake County Winery Association promotes responsible hospitality and encourages all participants to designate drivers.


Designated drivers are invited to enjoy nonalcoholic drinks, food and entertainment free of charge at each site, compliments of the association.


Special Wine Adventure “designated driver” badges will be provided. These badges are sponsored in part by the Lake County AODS and the Clearlake Police Department.
