Winecream Tour and Tasting. July 13-September 28. Enjoy a tour of Crossroad Company's production space, where they hand craft Winecream from start to finish. You'll hang out in the loft-type space where they ferment and age their distinctive fruit wines, the kitchen where it's blended with house-pasteurized cream, and the intimate tasting room where you'll sample a variety of delicious, boozy Winecream flavors. You'll also have the opportunity to purchase scoops to enjoy in their historic urban space, as well as pints to bring home.
