Spring means warm weather, excitement and fun at Clover Hill
Robin Williams said, "Spring is nature's way of saying, 'Let’s Party!'" and boy, we sure feel like it is a party at Clover Hill Vineyards & Winery!
The vineyards are a glorious display of bursting buds, gorgeous shoots, and vibrant green colors everywhere you turn. This year marks our 42nd growing season and springtime always makes us giddy with excitement. We look forward to another wonderful Clover Hill grape growing season.
Also, our tasting room is bursting with excitement and fun during the month of May. This weekend is the perfect opportunity to celebrate the season and join us for our Bud Burst Festival! We will be sipping wine slushies, snacking on cheeses and enjoying the scenery. You can find this weekend’s details along with more events throughout the month of May listed below.
