2017/18 Wine Holidays: Celebrate at Deer Creek Winery or Our Outlet Locations

By Rhonda Brooks | August 15, 2017

There’s always something happening at Deer Creek!

Fall is definitely wine season! The long-awaited grape and fruit harvest is happening all around our region, and gallons upon gallons of juice are being pressed and stored until it’s time to be turned into wine! About 25,000 gallons of that juice will be coming to our Deer Creek Winery warehouse in the next 12 months to be turned into about 125,000 bottles of your favorite wine!

Here are some more great ways to enjoy the upcoming seasons here.

Perfect Gift Giving Ideas

Do you have a hard time buying gifts for others in this culture of abundance? Do you sometimes pick something that’s just not right and end up feeling bad?

We have the perfect way to tell what kind of wine your friends and family will love just by asking questions about their personality through our Vinotype Wine Preference guide. You can even get the wine wrapped and ready to go!
