Try reds, whites, and sparkling wines from different vineyards, such as Black Smuggler, Rio Suave, Noisy Water, and Enchantment Vineyards, or mix things up with some hard cider! Each vineyard has their own style, strengths, and offerings so you’ll never get bored, and if you find a bottle you particularly enjoy, you can buy it to take home. At the same time, you can pair the wine with delicious food, such as sandwiches or cheese, from the numerous food trucks and restaurant booths set up in the park, giving you a well-rounded idea for pairing. And if you feel the wine start to go to your head, coffee and water will, of course, be available at New Mexico Pinion Coffee.
