The chance to enjoy some delicious new wines is yours at this year’s Christmas Gift + Hobby Show with official winery sponsor Daniel’s Vineyard.

“The Gift + Hobby Show has always been an event we have frequented as a family, which makes it even more special to participate this year as a vendor,” said General Manager Jessica Pontius. “We are honored to be the official winery sponsor and for the opportunity to introduce our wine to attendees who have not yet tried Daniel's Vineyard wine.”

Daniel's Vineyard is a local, family-owned winery and vineyard. Its story began when owners Daniel and Kimberly were on vacation with their five children in Italy, where the idea to plant a vineyard was sown in the Tuscan foothills. When they arrived back to the states, the Cook family began to put their dream into action. In 2010, more than 14,000 grape vines were cultivated into the Indiana soil by family, friends and neighbors. As the vines have flourished over the years, so has the Daniel’s Vineyard community. Today, Daniel’s Vineyard is a full production winery that offers a private wine club and event venue for any occasion.

“Our wines range from sweet to dry, making it easy for our customers to find many options that fit their palate,” Pontius said. “Our selection is always changing, but currently we have more than 20 varietals with the majority being ‘estate wines,’ which are made from the grapes we grow at our local, Geist-area vineyard.”

What will Daniel’s Vineyard be offering at the Christmas Gift + Hobby Show? A lot! That includes some new wines, such as their mulled sangria, as well as their new Pawty Pack.

“The Pawty Pack is a 12-pack of canned wine with three different varietals and 12 distinct cans, each featuring a painting of a dog by our family artist, Jenna Cook. This amazing gift idea is equivalent to six full bottles of wine! We have partnered with the Hamilton County Humane Society to raise funds for their mission, and hopefully we can help get a few pups a forever home before Christmas. In addition to the Pawty Pack, we are excited to announce our Fireside Sangria, which is a warm and cozy mulled wine sangria, and our Circle City Holiday Red wine.”

There’s certainly something for everyone. Even if you don’t drink wine, there are great gifts for your wine-drinking friends and family this holiday season. Come see Daniel’s Vineyard at the 2019 Christmas Gift + Hobby Show from November 6-10 at the Indiana State Fairgrounds!
