A group of wineries in York County, Pennsylvania, is offering a great opportunity to check out their vineyards (and the beautiful fall drive) in a unique way. 

 The UnCork York Wine Trail will take place November 20-22 and take you through 10 different wineries.  For only $10 you will receive a souvenir wine glass which will give you a 10% discount at every one of the vineyard you visit.  In addition, you can collect stamps from the wineries to win great prizes.

Tastings of exclusive wines will be featured on the UnCork York Wine Trail, some of which were just pressed from the harvest.  You will also discover the wine-making process as you tour the cellars of the wineries, tasting directly from barrels and tanks.  And, of course, there will be some great food along the way to pair with the wine.

The wineries of Pennsylvania's Dutch County Roads Region have made this event into a vacation by putting together weekend packages at a variety of hotels, as well as bed & breakfast locations.  One example is the Red Lion Inn's Wine Just Off The Vine Package --

Deluxe Accommodations for 2-Nights
2 Tickets to Wine Just Off the Vine Event
2 Red Lion B&B Wine Glasses
4-Course Dinner prepared by Chef Dani at the Red Lion
Full Breakfast Each Morning

The cost of this package is $249 plus tax. An second night is available at $179.99.  Check the event's website for additional hotels offering similar specials during UnCork York.
