Austin Wine Week

Yes, it may be wine o’clock somewhere, but starting this Sunday, April 26, it’ll be wine o’week in Bat City. Founded by wine events org VinoKarma’s Amanda Laden on values like “Texas Hospitality,” “Down-Home Fun,” and “Celebrating Local,” the seven-day sprint features various vino-centric celebrations of Lone Star wines. That includes happy hours, a special night for women winemakers, and the Austin Wine Week Passport. Download the online stamp-card and track each glass or bottle imbibed at participating venues to earn prizes. But the real win, AWW writes, is discovering “how good Texas wine actually is.” – James Scott
