The Big Crush Harvest Wine Festival
October 6, 2023 - October 8, 2023
Each year, we celebrate the grape harvest by inviting our friends to join our member wineries to get in on the most exciting time of year. Visit our participating wineries where you will be welcomed to the scenic foothills of Amador Wine Country by the entire wine community.
Tickets include wine tasting and harvest experiences at 6 different wineries each day. Ticket holders will receive a commemorative glass that they can use to enjoy tailored wine tasting flights alongside a variety of harvest-related experiences, small bites, and live music.
How it Works
1. Purchase Your Passport!
Purchase your passport online before the event and choose your “Experience”.
2. Choose Your Passport Experience
Walk-in Experience: During the check out process select one (1) winery labeled “ Walk-in Check-in” as your starting location for each passport day.

You will receive a wrist band with pull tabs. When you arrive at a winery to check in, the winery will ask you to remove one of the six tabs from your wrist band. Once all of your tabs have been removed, you can no longer visit any other wineries for the remainder of the day.
