Join The HalloWINE Trail In Kilkenny This October

Look, I love Halloween events with my kids as much as the next guy. At the same time, I find myself wondering why there aren't more events around the Halloween season geared toward adults?

Well, adult friends, that moment has come. Vintage Escapes Winery and Vineyard is hosting a Hallo-WINE Trail in Kilkenny, Minnesota on Sunday, October 26th, 2025.

The event will cost $18 in advance or $23 at the door and includes a tasting of six wine varieties, a Vintage Escapes tasting glass, a coupon for $5 off of a $25 future purchase and five hours of fun.

In addition to the wine tasting, there will be live music from Bruce Burniece, Winery Kitchen + Twisted Chicken's Food Truck, an outdoor bar and an indoor bar.

The venue recommends wearing hiking boots or good walking shoes to deal with hilly, uneven terrain.
