Anderson Valley Pinot Noir Festival 2023

On May 1st, join us for a month-long online auction to celebrate May is Anderson Valley Pinot Month & the 24th Annual Anderson Valley Pinot Noir Festival.

Bidding begins on May 1st and will close on May 31st. Email info@avwines.com if you want us to email you a reminder once the auction is live!

Once-in-a-lifetime, exclusive packages have been curated for our Pinot Noir Festival, featuring many amazing businesses in our wine community. Non-profits we support this month through the online auction and the May 20th Pinot Noir Festival raffle event include the volunteer Anderson Valley Fire Fighters and the Anderson Valley Skate Park Project.

The AV Skate Park Project was initiated by students in the AV Jr/Sr High Service Learning Team (AVSLT), a student group trying to address:

- There are very few public spaces for young people to foster healthy recreation.
- The void of such public spaces encourages youth to congregate in less visible areas (e.g. under bridges, in empty houses or cars) and engage in risky, unhealthy activity.
- A skatepark will inspire AV youth to be more active and fosters healthy community connection. Skateboarding, roller skating, biking and scooting are great outlets, physically and mentally, for young people, and can be a vital source for promoting mental and physical well being.
