Pennsylvania winery Kreutz Creek, in West Grove, Pa., has several events and special planned that revolve around the holiday. Through the month of December, the winery will take 10 percent off the sales of six bottles of wine and 20 percent off any case sales.
In addition, the winery will hold a Christmas Open House tomorrow and Sunday. Harpist Maureena Spadaro will be playing Christmas music from 2 to 5 p.m. tomorrow. There also will be chocolate fondue with special treats for dipping as well as Christmas cookies and holiday wassail. Proprietor Carole Kirkpatrick said she made the wassail with “red wine and used a recipe from Germany that a friend gave me. It's delicious with lots of cinnamon and clove spices. It's a perfect wine for this time of year and throughout the winter season.”
Finally, the winery has scheduled a pairing of wines with a five-course dinner at Amici’s Fine Dining & Spirits, in Landenberg, Pa. That’s scheduled for 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 10. Call 610.255.5777 for reservations.
