This was the 16th Annual Colorado Mountain Winefest in Palisade, Colorado, and Carlson Vineyards has presented their wines at every Winefest since the first one in 1992.
Carlson Vineyards is the 4th winery in Colorado, pioneering in making wines from 100% Colorado grown grapes and fruits. Carlson wines are a pure expression of the wondrous, Colorado sun-ripened fruitiness of "vitis vinifera" grapes such as Gewurztaminer, Riesling, Chardonnay, Lemberger and Shiraz, as well as world-famous Palisade peaches and cherries.
These award-winning wines will go quickly - order now and avoid disappointment!
