The 6th Annual Winthrop Wine Festival is a wonderful way to
spend a Saturday afternoon in the beautiful Methow Valley.
Enjoy music, hors d’oeuvres, art, and more while tasting
a selection of wines from Washington State wineries. Located
by the scenic Methow River, the Winthrop Park is a great place
to relax and enjoy a beautiful June day.

Wine
in the Park: More than a tasting...Spend an enjoyable
afternoon sipping Washington's own wines in the park by the
beautiful Methow River.
Enjoy the classic jazz stylings of local trio Harmony
Junction.
The Harmony Junction Jazz Trio plays music primarily taken
from the Golden Age of American Song, focusing on such composers
as Duke Ellington, George Gershwin, Jerome Kern and other
great composers of that era. On occasions the
trio plays bee-bop and jazz from contemporary sources.
The Trio plays extensively in the Methow Valley as well as
in other areas of Okanogan County for both public and private
functions, and plays a monthly Jazz Night at the Twisp River
Pub throughout the year. The Trio consists of David
Chavey Reynaud from Twisp (principle soloist - Tenor and Alto
Saxophone); Maren Noyes from Omak (bass); and, Dick White
from Winthrop (guitar).
This year for the Wine Festival, the trio will be joined by
guest jazz violinist John Weeks from Twisp. John's music
skills and talents are widely known in Washington State and
elsewhere in both modern and classical music circles and he
makes a great addition to the trio.
