New Year’s In Wine Country – New Year, New Adventures

27-3

It’s that time of year again – when groups of friends start asking each other, “So what should we do for New Year’s Eve?” This can be a question that brings fear and dread to even the most seasoned party-goers… What should you do to celebrate the New Year?

You’ve got to begin with a bang (there’s no doubt about that), but the year’s biggest celebration takes some serious planning…

Or so you would think. At Wineries we’ve put together some of our favorite wine destinations to help you ring in the New Year in style. From tasting traditional Tuscan dishes in Siena to dancing the night away in Valparaiso, planning New Year’s Eve has never been easier.

TUSCANY –

Celebrate New Year’s Eve the Siena way, with a traditional dinner paired with bottles of Chianti Classico. After dinner, wander along the ancient streets to Piazza del Campo for an evening of spectacular lights and music.

PRIORAT –

If dancing the night away sounds like your kind of party, Priorat is the place for you! At the stroke of midnight, it is traditional to eat 12 grapes, one at each stroke of the clock, to bring good luck for the New Year.

MENDOZA –
