Autumn toasts
Local events for the new season
For oenophiles who enjoy sampling all the wines of Santa Clara Valley, the annual Fall Passport Weekend kicks off from 6-8pm, Friday night, Oct. 13, with a food and wine extravaganza held in the Morgan Hill Community and Cultural Center. The Passport weekend event continues Saturday and into Sunday, from noon to 5pm and provides access to more than 30 different wineries. Many wineries offer barrel samples, live music and small bites during the festivities.
If beer is more your thing, then you’ll want the fifth annual Brew Crawl which is taking place in downtown Morgan Hill on Saturday, Oct. 14 from 1-5pm. Walk or crawl your way through 40 craft beers being poured at 20 downtown Morgan Hill shops & restaurants, all within walking distance.
If you were too busy at the Wine Passport weekend to attend the Morgan Hill Brew Crawl, you can still get your beer fix with the fourth Annual Halloween Beer Crawl in Gilroy on Saturday, Oct. 21, from 2-6pm. Costumes are encouraged while you sip your way across the downtown pour stations offering tasty bites, home brew beer and live music. There is an After Party at the District Theater (7430 Monterey Road) featuring live music by the Chicano All-Stars.
