How to visit a winery along the Berks County Wine Trail?

Here are some handy tips on wine tasting and tasting room ettiquette to make your visit to the wineries along the Berks County Wine Trail a most memorable visit!

Choosing a wine. Ask yourself what kind of food do I eat? Select wines that match well with foods you enjoy. Those foods you enjoy will taste even better with the right wine!

Tasting Room Etiquette. Please conduct yourself in a way that is respectful of the rules of the house and the rights of others to enjoy their wine tasting experience. Also bear in mind each winery has its own tasting policies including the number of tastings and tasting fees. We suggest you visit each winery’s web site you plan to visit for details.

Samples. You will be poured small samples of wines of your choosing. Make use of dump buckets, and if you plan on swallowing your samples, plan on having a designated driver.

Buses, Limousines and Group Visits. We want your group to have the best experience at any one of the Berks County Wine Trail wineries. Larger groups require extra staffing. It is required that groups of six or more make reservations a minimum of 48 hours in advance. Some wineries may not be able to accommodate large groups. We suggest you visit each winery’s web site your group plans to visit for details.
