Galena Nouveau Wine Weekend

The weekend officially kicks off Friday at 2:30 pm when the familiar “clip clop” of horse hooves will be heard throughout Galena’s downtown. On board the horse-drawn wagons sporting revelers is a celebrated guest that will have the entire town in merriment all weekend—Galena Cellars' Nouveau wine. Local restaurants embrace the celebration, offering traditional Nouveau-inspired luncheons and wine tastings, live music and receptions. Throughout the weekend, wine lovers can also enjoy vineyard tours (Galena boasts three area vineyards), winemaker dinners, wine-inspired pampering such as spa and shopping specials and lodging packages. Join us for the second annual Grand Tasting offering a sampling of more than 200 wines. The Grand Tasting takes place on Saturday, November 19 from 3:30 pm -6:00 pm at Galena’s Convention Center (900 Galena Square Drive). Advanced tickets purchase (recommended), as well as a complete list of weekend happenings and offerings are available online
