The New Mexico Wine Festival is a longstanding summer tradition. Visitors can sample and shop over 200 wines from top wineries in the state. In addition, the festival offers delicious food, artisans selling their crafts, and live music performances to celebrate the season. For over 30 years, New Mexico Wine has hosted annual festivals that feature local food, arts and crafts, great live music, and, of course, the celebrated wines of New Mexico. The festival season starts every Memorial Day in Albuquerque and Las Cruces, attracting over 13,000 wine lovers for a weekend filled with fun and festivity. As fall approaches, the festival gathers again to celebrate the harvest and the hard work spent in the vineyards with a Labor Day weekend celebration. You're invited to join one of the annual events to taste the latest vintages and meet the families who produce quality craft wine for your enjoyment.
