Snowy Peaks Winery Celebrating 20th Harvest Season (EPNews)
October 26, 2024
Estes Park’s only winery, Snowy Peaks Winery, is celebrating their 20th year of turning Colorado-grown grapes into award winning wines.
Their first vintage was in 2005, the year the winery and tasting room opened in downtown Estes Park. Many things have changed since then, but one thing hasn’t, the high quality of the wines produced at this high-altitude winery. While the 2024 vintage wines won’t be ready until next summer or even longer, the current selection at the winery tasting room is making waves in competitions both near and far.
Owners, Candice and Erik Mohr, are currently celebrating three Double Gold medals received at the Colorado Governor’s Cup Competition for their 2022 Cabernet Franc, 2023 Albarino and 2023 Eleve Sucre. The Albarino and Cabernet Franc were chosen along with 12 other wines to represent the best of Colorado wine in the Governor’s Cup Collection.
