Valentine's Day Weekend along the Lehigh Valley Wine Trail

It might still be January but it's not too early to start making plans for Valentine's Day for you and your sweetheart. And of course we suggest taking him or her on a wine trail expedition. 

Since the holiday falls on a Friday this year, several of our member wineries are offering their specials and promotions all weekend long. And don't forget that passports to the upcoming March Passport Program event make a great gift!

Big Creek

Big Creek has several great wine choices for your Valentine celebration. Their semi-dry white "Joi" is a blend of Muscat and Seyval and goes very well with lobster. For sweeter wines they have La Brusca, which is great with chocolate-covered cherries, and Moscato, a wonderfully aromatic match for rick, dark chocolates.

With its raspberry undertones, Victoria’s Passion brings out the best in any chocolate dessert. For something drier, try the award-winning Merlot grown at their Leaser Vineyard.
