Celebrating Independents

Support independent and family operated tasting rooms as part of your Independence Day celebration...

With the founding of the United States taking place nearly 246 years ago, the Fourth of July is always a party no matter where you are. What sets it apart from a being a dull event to the event of the year is making sure you have the proper ingredients. 

Our favorite recipe is a sprinkle of good friends, a wallop of delicious BBQ, a splash (or three) of your favorite cocktail - and of course lots of fireworks to show everyone in your neighborhood of how proud you are standing on the land of the free and the home of the brave.

This is also the time of the year we love to celebrate family-owned and operated tasting rooms. We call these the Independents. These are the artisan winemakers, brewers, distillers and event producers that don't take the easy way, they stay up late at night to develop, design and throw down some amazing experiences that we've all come to love on CellarPass.

Small town 4th of July celebrations are simply the best.  And where there's wine country, there's lots of small towns.  From parades down Main Street, concerts in the park, pie eating contests, and back yard BBQs its easy for your heart to swell with love for fellow Americans and our great nation.  Make Wine Country your destination for your holiday celebrations this year.  Plus, there's some pretty exciting events happening to make your 4th of July weekend the best ever!
