Steve Padula, the owner of Bateaux Cellars in Toledo, pours a glass of his Bordeaux blend Voyageur during the 2013 Spring Chehalis Valley Wine Tour Saturday.
The Chehalis Valley Wine Tour, which features visits to six boutique wineries — four in Lewis County, one in Cowlitz and and one in Thurston — will be 11 a.m.-6 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
The tour “loop” takes you to Mt. St. Helens Cellars in Castle Rock; Scatter Creek Winery in Tenino; Heymann Whinery, Chehalis; Wells’ Winery in Onalaska; Bateaux Cellars in Toledo; and Agate Creek Cellars in Chehalis.
Guests will sample wines, nibble on hors d’oeuvres and enjoy the views of the countryside and mountains as they go from winery to winery.
Participants can start the tour at any of the wineries, since it is self-guided.
Tickets, $20, are available online at www.chehalisvalleywinetour.com/.
