Cellardoor Winery Presents Winterfest 2010 on Saturday February 20

LINCOLNVILLE, Maine – Cellardoor Winery is inviting Mainers to celebrate the beauty and joy of winter with its family-friendly Winterfest 2010 taking place Saturday, February 20 from 10:00a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the winery at 367 Youngtown Road in Lincolnville.



Winterfest 2010 will feature fun outdoor activities such as: sledding, snowshoeing, snow person making, ice skating, and horse-drawn wagon rides. Participants will also be able to enjoy food and wine pairings, hot cocoa and savory treats, and a gourmet brunch by chef Lawrence Klang from Natalie’s. The Chris Humphrey Big Band and the Barber Shop Quartet will provide live music throughout the day. Attendees should note that a limited quantity of skates and sleds will be available for free to use during the day.

A highlight of the day for those over 21 will be a unique opportunity to sample wine directly from the barrel. “A tradition in other parts of the country, this is a fun way to experience a new wine before it is bottled,” explained Christina Peet of Cellardoor Winery. “We hope to be able to offer barrel samplings again during the course of the year. For wine fans, it’s really interesting to taste a wine in its different stages,” added Peet.

Admission to Winterfest 2010 is free; attendees are asked to bring a non-perishable food item or gently worn clothing, which will be donated to local organizations supporting neighbors in need.
