2020 Georgia Wine Highway Information
In previous years a “Georgia Wine Highway Week” was held over the span of 10 days in March. However, for 2020 the Georgia Wine Highway event expanded to a month-long celebration to allow for more spacing and time to visit during COVID-19 travel restrictions.
Wine Highway Week in the Georgia Mountains
This tour of some of the finest North Georgia mountain vineyards includes a commemorative souvenir wine glass and 4-5 wine tastings at each participating vineyard. There is a $50 charge per passport, but with the opportunity to sample multiple wines from 20+ vineyards, it is one of the best deals in Georgia!
To participate, visit any of the participating wineries and request a Wine Highway Passport. You will receive a “Wine Highway Week” souvenir glass for your tastings and an admission “passport” punch card for the participating wineries. Be sure to keep the Passport and souvenir glass with you at all wineries visited to receive your wine tastings!
Each winery provides its own wine tasting format, and many vineyards will include complimentary food and live music on weekends.
