An exclusive weekend event for club members.

2024 Club CRUSH Weekend

November 1-3, 2024

Taste.  Eat.  Stomp.  Repeat.

We are going BIG for this year’s Fall Release Party on the weekend of November 1-3, 2024.  Of course, you’ll be tasting all of our newest wines and ciders and eating some delicious food.  But, this year, you’re going to help us make the wine too!  That’s right, we’ll be stomping grapes & bottling wine in and around a series of tastings.  It all comes together with a special winemakers’ pairing dinner held in the RiverWalk Resort Grand Ballroom.

Here’s an idea!  How about you control your weekend itinerary?  This year, your ticket will include everything, but you get to decide when to do everything.  The only times that are fixed are your stomp/bottle time and the winemakers’ dinner.  Otherwise, taste and eat at your own pace, on your own schedule.

One ticket.  Do everything!

Weekend tickets are only $199 pp for club members, their friends and family.  When you check in for the weekend, you’ll get vouchers for everything and you get to choose when to use them (except for the winemakers’ dinner where we all eat together).  Here’s what is included in your ticket:

What's up with the "on your own" activities?

You’ve spoken, we listened.

In the past, we scheduled our weekend event activities at specific times throughout the day.  But, many of you responded to our surveys indicating that you would prefer the events to be either closer together (so you are not wandering around for a while with nothing to do) or further apart (giving you more time in between activities to do something on your own).

This new format we are trying will allow you to choose what to do and when to do it.

  • Maybe you want to get up Saturday morning and take a hike for the morning and not start the winery activities until the afternoon.
  • Or, maybe you want to jump right into it and do all the activities early so you can take a nap before dinner.
  • Or, space the activities out and take little walks in between.

It is now up to you.

When can we take advantage of the "on your own" activities?

You are welcome to enjoy any of the “on your own” tastings whenever Seven Birches Winery and Rhythm Tap & Grille are open.  Keep in mind that you need to be at the winemaking activities at the timeslot you choose when buying your tickets and the Winemakers’ Dinner on Saturday night is at 7pm.

What do we need for the winemaking activities?

For the grape stomp, you need big feet.  Just kidding.  You will want to wear something that you don’t mind getting some grape stains on or pants that you can roll up the leg to your knees.  We will supply nice hot water for you to wash your feet before and after you get into the bin and towels to dry your feet off.

For the bottling activity, you only need steady hands.  You’ll be working your bottle of wine from empty to corked and labeled with the help of our winemaking staff.  You really don’t need anything but your camera for this one.

Please make sure to arrive at the winery entrance (lower level, below the tasting room) at the timeslot that you chose when purchasing your tickets.  You may also want to bring a sweater as the winery tends to be a bit chilly.

I'm buying more than 1 ticket. How do I select different meals (or timeslots)?
