Bainbridge wineries are open this weekend

August 31st, 2012 by brynn grimley

If you’ve been putting off a visit to the Bainbridge wineries thinking: “I’ll go the next time,” this is your “next time.”

The wineries are open this weekend and it’s the last time they’ll be open for a while because harvest and crush are fast upon us.

All seven wineries will be open for tours and tasting from noon to 5 p.m. It’s a great chance to talk with the winemakers about their winemaking styles, and try their wines. And if you go this weekend you have the benefit of an extra day — some of the wineries will be open Monday too.

Here’s some information from the Winery Alliance of Bainbridge Island website about the weekend:
