This LDW Calls For Tons Of Grapes, Squished Beneath Your Feet!

This year’s Labor Day Weekend is going to be packed with grapes! Tons of them, squished beneath your feet!

On Saturday, September 2nd, the Julian Grape Stomp Festa continues the old-world tradition of kicking off your shoes, rolling up your pant legs and letting tons of blessed grapes mash and jam beneath your feet.

Starting at 11 a.m. Julian’s Menghini Winery will be packed with wineries, tastings, shopping, bocce ball, a Lucy Look-Alike contest and dancing – all set to the sweet sounds of Italian music!

Regular admission tickets are $15 for adults, children ages 6 to 20 are $5, and under age 5 are free.

Or, treat yourself to a VIP experience which includes convenient reserved parking, event admission, a fast-pass to the stomping vat, comfortable seating under the VIP tent in the shade, two a free wine glass, two free cocktails and snacks!
