Wine lovers rejoice.

The Dahlonega Wine Trail will start its fifth year this month, offering six winery stops instead of its usual five.

The two-day winery exploration will be from noon to 5 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 20, and 12:30-5 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 21.

Tickets for the tour, also referred to as “passports,” are $35 per person. The passport includes entry into the six wineries for two days, as well as four tastings at each spot.

This year’s wineries include Cavender Creek Vineyards & Winery, Frogtown Cellars, Kaya Vineyard & Winery (formerly known as Blackstock), Montaluce Winery & Estates, Three Sisters Vineyards & Winery and Wolf Mountain Vineyards & Winery.

Not only that, but the first 1,000 to sign up for the event receive a free souvenir glass. The passport also has maps and other useful information included.

To obtain a passport, guests must register and pay online at dahlonega.org. Then, click on the Dahlonega Wine Trail page and follow the instructions.

Once you have purchased the passport, pick it up from the Dahlonega-Lumpkin County Visitors Center at 13 S. Park St. in downtown Dahlonega. Passports will be available to pick up from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Friday, Aug. 19, 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 20 and 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 21. Bring a photo ID to retrieve your passport.
