Giveaway – Vintage Indiana {That’s WINE, people} – CLOSED

May 18, 2012 | Contest, Giveaway

GIVEAWAY CLOSED.

I’m not a drinker.

On any normal day you won’t find a wine or a beer in my hand.  When the neighbors celebrate I may have a drink or two, but I just don’t tend to gravitate to alcohol.

BUT. (You had to know I was going somewhere with that)

I love a good wine.

By good, I mean sweet, fruity and doesn’t taste much like alcohol.  My husband on the other hand, likes it dry as the desert. Lip puckering dry.

My 45X45 list had “Attend a wine tasting” on it – and it was the first thing I checked off. Let’s just say I’m new to this wine stuff. I can’t tell you about a bouquet, or how to properly ‘taste’ a wine.  I can just tell you what I like.

Vintage Indiana

One thing I didn’t realize when I first started learning how to enjoy wine is that Indiana has more than its fair share of wineries (63 in case you didn’t know).

And on June 2, in Military Park, 26 of them will be there with their delectable wines for you to sample.  From 11AM-7PM you can answer all those burning questions, or just delight in yummy samples.

Not just wine to sample, either.

There will be live music (including a former American Idol – I kid you not!), and food!  Yay food! Me? I need it – I can’t enjoy any alcohol without food in my belly.  This way I can truly enjoy my day.

The thing that surprised me?  This isn’t just for the adults!  They have set up a whole KidZone for the tykes so the whole family can enjoy the day without the need for a sitter!!

So how can you get in on this great day? It’s simple:

1. Head on over to a Marsh Supermarket – where the advance tickets are going for just $22
2. If you want to wait, at the door tickets are $25.  Bonus? Designated Driver tickets are only $10, and Kids 6-20 are only $5 (under 5 is free!!)
3. Go for FREE – Enter my giveaway right here…where you can win 2 tickets!!

That’s right, I said FREE because thanks to Indiana Family of Farmers, I’ve got 2 tickets to giveaway!

Entering is so very easy. You can get three entry points:
1. Comment here telling me whether you’re a fruity or you like to pucker (sweet wine or dry?) {Mandatory}
2. Tweet about the giveaway and leave a comment w/ the tweet URL
3. Share this page on Facebook and leave a comment w/ saying you did!

Details: The giveaway will end on Tuesday, May 22nd at 11PMEST.  I will pick & contact the winner on Wednesday the 23rd. The winner will have 24 hours to respond or a new winner will be chosen.

Psssst….want more chances to enter?  Go over to my good friend Katie’s blog and enter her contest, or head on over to the effervescent Michelle’s blog & enter HER contest.  Oh look, Crystal’s blog has more chances to enter, too. Head on over to Angie’s for a fresh set of chances.  Keep checking back here over the next few days, I’ll keep linking up to blogs running contests!

    I prefer dry wines because I think they taste better with food, and I LOVE food too. 🙂
