JACKSON, Wyo. — Join The Wort Hotel for a wine social in the Silver Dollar Showroom on Wednesday, February 26 from 5-6:30 p.m. Wine tastings will be offered from local wineries including Jackson Hole Winery and Cinder Wines.

Cinder is a winery from the Snake River Valley area, which is touted as the next great region for American Wine Making. Joe Schnerr, owner of Cinder, will be at the event pouring wine and answering questions.

Jackson Hole Winery receives their grapes from Sonoma, Napa and Walla Walla but the actual winemaking, aging and bottling of the wines occurs here in Jackson Hole.

“We have such top quality and exciting wines being produced from essentially our next-door neighbors,” says Wort sommelier and wine buyer Andi Caruso. “You don’t need to go to California or Oregon for great wine. Come join us here at The Wort.”

In addition to the wines from Jackson Hole Winery and Cinder Wines, The Wort may even have another “local” surprise wine being poured that night.

Tickets to the event are $15 in advance and include wine tastings, small bites and raffle prizes. Attendants must be 21 or older. Raffle prizes include swag from the wineries, bottles of wine and a dinner for two at The Silver Dollar Grill.

Tickets can be purchased here and raffle tickets are included with the purchase of an event ticket.
