About the Festival: The Eight Annual Killington Wine Festival is Friday July 17 through Sunday July 19. Once again this year, the event promises to be a spectacular showcase of great wine. Over the last 7 years, the Killington Wine Festival has become a signature event for the Killington region each July. Every year the wine festival continues to grow, building on the excitement and good will created by prior festivals. Last year's event displayed 300 wines represented by 33 wineries/suppliers. Over the course of the 2008 event, nearly 500 people tasted wines from around the world with the Green Mountains of Vermont and Killington Peak as a scenic backdrop. This year's festival promises to be even bigger.
The Estate Tasting on Friday evening will feature over 30 Estate and Reserve wines, complimented by hors d'oeuvres prepared by the Killington Grand Hotel.
The Grand Wine Tasting at "4241" on Saturday afternoon will feature 400 wines from around the world. The event is split between a tent at the K1 base lodge, and the Peak Restaurant at Killington Peak. The ticket price includes a gondola ride to Killington Peak.
