Private Events

A unique one day experience.  Join the Team that will harvest our wonderful vintages of Estate wines including St. Croix, Vignole, Chardonnay, Riesling and  Cabernet Franc.  The dates are not set because the grapes have not indicated when they may be ready.  It has been a very difficult year for growing and while our apples look extraordinary, the grapes have been very slow developing.

 Want to get involved and participate in the wine and harvesting process? 

Your dreams of being a Vintner for a day are finally here!!

Join us for a unique experience and a chance to have fun with your friends all while supporting your local farm.  Be part of our vintner harvest team!  With a team of 40 members, you will be directly involved with harvesting 3 to 4 tons of   grapes in about 3 hours.  From the vine to lugs to Gators and to the winery, you will experience the start of the wine-making process at Nashoba Valley Winery.  Then enjoy the end results (wine) from the previous year’s harvest.   If you like wine and you love to support everything local then this “From Vine to Wine” one of a kind unique one day experience is the perfect way to spend your Sunday!  Experience and participate in the origin of wine-making and learn about farming as a member of our team will be available to assist and answer questions throughout the work day.   “It gives people pride in something local and it gives them a lot of understanding about something they enjoy.  In a  few years from now you’ll be able to return and get wine from this year’s harvest and say, “Hey, I helped with this.”
