As fall rolls around Napa Valley, the valley explodes with harvest festivals and the annual grape stomp activities. For over 150 years, the Napa Valley has been a center of grape harvest activities. Every year, vineyards around the valley celebrate the harvest season with special events like these:

  • Grape Stomp at Bourassa Vineyards – with a roast pig feast, local musicians, and the opportunity to turn your feet purple, join the Bourassa family in their annual grape stomp. Per person price is $80 ($40 for members and you can bring 2 guests at the wine club price).
  • Harvest Party at Franciscan Winery – live music, incredible wine-by-the-case promotions, and great food are hallmarks of the Franciscan Winery Harvest Party when they open their cellars and extend the bountiful harvest to visitors and members. Saturday, October 5 – per person is $65 ($40 for club members).
  • Old Fashioned Harvest Stomp at Schweiger Vineyards – offering a chance for visitors to get completely involved in the process, including testing Brix levels, picking your own grapes, and stomping, this day of fun includes lunch and wine tasting.
