Spend Thanksgiving Weekend in Wine Country
What better way to make the most of Thanksgiving weekend than by starting a new tradition? Get ready for the rest of the holiday festivities with a road trip to Yakima Valley Wine Country for sipping and saving. Why visit this time of year?

Wine country also has a slower pace this time of year and you’ll find the tasting rooms are a little quieter. The excitement and activity of crush has passed and winemakers are busy behind the scenes perfecting the next great vintage while the peace of fall fills the Valley.
