2015 Kirkwood Wine Stroll

Friday, September 25, 2015

After a wet week, the skies finally stopped pouring the wet stuff allowing people to come out to Kirkwood to enjoy the annual Wine Stroll. Tents were set up and roads were closed all along the little downtown corridor in the neighborhood as people tried wine from all over the world. There was music and food as well to help balance out the 21 and up event. The lines weren’t that long (due to the weather) and the wine was delicious! Put it on the calendar for next year and also don’t miss out on PorchFest (photos to be posted shortly thereafter) on Sunday!
