PLAN A TROPICAL ESCAPE TO LINGANORE WINECELLARS’ REGGAE WINE FESTIVAL

Relax and enjoy the sounds of the tropics without ever leaving town at Linganore Winecellars’ Reggae Wine Festival on Saturday and Sunday, July 19 – 20, 2008. You’ll enjoy an afternoon of warm summer breezes and sunshine on our beautiful 230 acre estate with 60 acres of vineyards located in just 39 miles from Baltimore and Washington, DC in peaceful Mt. Airy, Maryland.

The Soca influenced music of Passion Reggae Band (www.passionreggaeband.com) will entertain on Saturday and Sunday from 12 noon to 3 p.m. Guests will then hear the harmonious rhythms and dynamic vocals of Image Band (www.imageband.com) from 3:30 to 6 p.m.

Along with great music, be sure to enjoy the delicious food prepared by our caterers. Harvey’s Catering will make your mouth water with beef, turkey, chicken, fries, and nachos. It wouldn’t be a Reggae Festival without Jamaica Catering’s jerk chicken (curry, brown stew, fried wings), patties (beef. chicken veggie), tilapia, snapper, curry goat, fried plantains, rice, peas, chicken kabobs, oxtail, conch fritters, smoothies, and lemonade. Old Time Caterer’s will tantalize your taste buds with sweet italian sausage (with peppers, onions, and sweet sauce), pork bar-b-q, hamburgers and cheeseburgers, hotdogs (plain, chili, or with sauerkraut), fresh cut fries, world’s best fresh squeezed lemonade, and a selection of sodas. Allow J.B. Seafood to satisfy your craving for fresh crab cake sandwich, softshell sandwich, oyster sandwich, cajun catfish sandwich, fried butterfly shrimp, chicken tenders, cole slaw, french fires, onion rings, and bottled drinks.

While enjoying the views of our lovely vineyard, take a moment to explore the many products of our 25+ artisans. Jewelry, glassware, sculptures, temporary tattoos, breads, photography, and ironware are just a few of the many items you will find.
