Nouveau Celebration

Wine lovers can taste the newest, fruitiest varieties of wine during the Bucks County Wine Trail’s annual Nouveau weekend, Saturday and Sunday Nov. 23-24. (Manoff Market Cidery will not be open on Sunday, Nov. 24).

Nouveau wines are bottled young with little aging, offering light and sweet tastes. As is tradition in the Beaujolais region of France, the Bucks County wineries offer their own Nouveau from harvest. For those wineries that don’t produce a Nouveau wine, other activities and new releases will be offered.

What’s planned

Bishop Estate Vineyard and Winery will release a new batch of White Bishop, the winery’s locally harvested Vidal Blanc, which is aged in a whiskey barrel. Bishop Estate will offer complimentary tastings of the new batch, as well as the aged batch during the Nouveau Celebration.

Guests can enjoy free wagon rides through the vineyard, as well as live music and food trucks both Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 23-24. A Sunday Sangria special will also be offered on the final day of the Nouveau Celebration.

Crossing Vineyards and Winery will offer tastings of the winery’s 2024 Le Nouveau, as well as glasses of this year’s Nouveau for $7. Guests can also enjoy the seasonal cocktail, Le Nouveau-tini.

Save 10% on the purchase of 4 bottles of the 2024 Le Nouveau and receive an eco-wine bag. Purchase 6 bottles of the 2024 Le Nouveau and be entered into a raffle for 2 complimentary tickets to the Dec. 19 Cabaret Show.
