Here’s What’s Happening!
Ron Yates Wines is in the direct path of totality, and there is simply no better way to experience this once-in-a-lifetime event!
Join the Ron Yates Wines Solar Eclipse Party on Monday, April 8! At this epic event, attendees can watch the rare celestial event unfold from the breathtaking hill country acreage behind the winery for perfect eclipse viewing. Ron Yates Wines is in the direct path of totality, and there is simply no better way to experience this once-in-a-lifetime event! Entry begins at 8:00 am, allowing attendees plenty of time to get in, park, and set up their area for the day. Guests are encouraged to bring camping chairs and blankets. Ron Yates will have plenty of space for visitors to get comfortable at the venue’s 10+ acres of party land! Plus, Ron Yates wines will be available for purchase, along with a special, vintage wine bar to taste past, present, and future releases. There will food, wine, a game area reserved for horseshoes, bocce ball, corn hole, maybe even axe-throwing, and live music. The opening band is Soul Wagon, which specializes in classic 50’s and 60’s era jazz. A perfect vibe for kickin’ back outside with a glass of wine. Headliners, Mike and the Moonpies, who just changed their name to Silverada, are layered with Telecaster twang and honky-tonk harmonies, making the perfect soundtrack for a total eclipse.
