Mesa Verde Country’s Wine, Food & Art Festival

In Mesa Verde Country® we know the best way to discover more about wine, food and art is to experience it — one sip, one bite, one canvas at a time. Join us August 24 -26, in Cortez, Colorado as we uncork another exceptional season filled with southwestern flavor, food and flair at the Mesa Verde Country® Wine, Food and Art Festival.

While sampling the fruit of the vine is a delicious highlight, there’s more to enjoy at the festival, including music, local artists and food. Wood-fired pizzas will be available for purchase.  Sample hand crafted breads, cheeses and infused olive oils, as well as local jams, jellies, and mustards. Don’t neglect to treat your eyes as well as your palate; as artists from around the region gather to showcase their work adding a dynamic and diverse visual component to the festival. Throughout the day Thomas Martin Scott will entertain crowds with his brand of heartfelt blues-rock with a touch of jazz.
