With tastings of Chaddsford Winery's award-winning wines and performances from jazz bands, the Labor Day Weekend Jazz Festival promises to be a jubilant holiday-weekend jaunt. Sample Chaddsford's full lineup of grapen goodness in a complimentary souvenir wine glass. The winery's crisp, dry whites will playfully pique palates, while the wide array of dry reds whets wine appetites with classy merlot, cabernet, and due rossi. Founded in 1982, Chaddsford Winery is cultivated by founders Eric and Lee Miller, who have a combined 60 years of experience in enology, viticulture, and the study of smashing champagne bottles onto doomed ocean liners.
At least two jazz bands are scheduled for each day, so you can nod and blink to the Budesa Brothers Trio (Saturday, 3:30 p.m.) or the world jazz beats of Siora (Monday, 3:30 p.m.). Food will be available from Pace One Restaurant, but guests are encouraged to bring their Batman Returns blanket and picnic in the serene Chester County countryside.
Must be 21 years or older.
Reviews

- …if you’re looking for a last-minute holiday weekend activity, consider making the trip out to the scenic Brandywine Valley, pack a picnic, and then relax and settle in for a day of wine, food and music with two live jazz bands performing each day. – James, Uwishunu
