DERBY DAY AT BERNHARDT WINERY
It’s off to the races at Bernhardt on May 6th! Show off your Derby attire and participate in one of our best-dressed competitions!
Stop and smell the roses and rosé while you’re here! Guests can enjoy a one-day exclusive ‘Rosé Trio’ full of floral flavor. The first one hundred guests to arrive will receive a rose from Bernhardt Winery to celebrate the day.
Think your Derby Day outfit is best-in-show? We’ll be hosting three contests: Derby Hats Contest, Ladies’ Best Dressed Contest, and Men’s Best Dressed Contest. Winners will receive a complimentary bottle of Bernhardt wine! Be sure to stick around until 4pm when we’ll judge the contests & announce the winners!

Novelty bottles signed by Jerry Bernhardt and decorated for the derby will be available to purchase while supplies last.
As if the day couldn’t get any more fun, we’ll have an Artisan Market full of local vendors to browse! Sip & shop local with us!
