Summer Concert Days
Back in the 80’s our family started the Gorge Amphitheatre. It was originally called the Champs de Brionne Summer Music Theatre and the name changed to the Gorge Amphitheatre along the way. After 7 years of building it up to 20,000 people capacity, first building the original stage and later bringing in a new larger, professional stage, starting overnight camping and making it known to the world, we sold it to MCA. Today Live Nation is the owner and they are our neighbor.
It is an easy to walk from the Gorge parking lots or Gorge camping areas to wine taste with us. Simply head west to the Gorge Oasis White Tents. Go left (south) until you see our path, called Gate 2 onto the Cave B property. Once through the gate take a right and head to the large basalt, round building which is our tasting room.
On Gorge concert days we do NOT take tasting reservations as we set everything up differently to accommodate more people. Most often our wine tastings on concert days take place on our front lawn. Both upstairs & downstairs are open for glass pours, bottle sales and snacks.
We often have live music on our Stage B Amphitheatre, located in front of our Quincy tasting room, that pair nicely with the bands at the Gorge. Many Gorge concert goers “pre-party” at Cave B with wine tasting, music and relaxing on our beautiful lawns. Music on our stage is always free to listen to, although we do ask you to purchase a bottle of Cave B wine if you are not wine tasting to support the winery and musicians. Wine tasting on concert days costs $20 per person, this covers the 4 tastings (2 white wines & 2 red wines) and helps us keep the concerts free.
Please note on concert days we use our EVENT GLASSES. Event glasses canNOT be taken home. Please leave your dirty glass on the marked dirty glass tables on the front lawn by both entries. Thank you for your help with this.
Need a place to park your car overnight while you attend a Gorge Concert? (no camping) Our Winery Parking LOT C is the place for you! It’s an easy, 10 minute walk to the Gorge ticket/security entrance. Normally you tend to get home 45 minutes to an hour earlier at the end of the show as it is so fast to get to the main road from our lot. No more waiting in the Gorge parking lot for hours. Purchase your reservations online. Day of park in the winery LOT C, then walk to our our tasting room to get your parking pass, by 6:30pm (we close at 6:30pm). Place it on your rearview mirror, facing out, by 7pm. We do tow, from 7pm on for any car without a pass in Lot C and we tow any car left in other areas of the property. Please note there are no refunds on event tickets/parking passes.

Since our very first harvest of our vineyards in 1984 we have had some type of Harvest Festival; from a family hoe down with friends, to an apple picking-face painting event many years ago to our current Grape Picking & Stomping Harvest Festival the last 7 years. This is one of our most favorite events of the year and it normally sells out in a number of hours!! We start our morning in our grape covered Piazza where we will greet you with a mimosa, and hand you a bucket with shears. We will then walk to one of our Cave B Vineyards that is ready to be picked for 60-75 minutes of grape picking. There is nothing quite like walking through our estate vineyards picking beautiful ripe grapes. It is so good for the soul! You then get the opportunity to follow the grapes you just picked back to the production facility to see how we destem & crush them, learn about the wine making process and yeast additions. A few lucky volunteers will get the chance to do “punch downs” too. With a glass of wine and some charcuterie in hand we will walk to our stage for an informative wine tasting led by Winemaker Freddy Arredondo on our new releases, with a special comparative tasting too. We will then enjoy a delicious Paella lunch by Chef Frank Magana. His paella is mouth watering. We will follow this up with a grape stomping competition. There will be 3 heats. If your name is called you will get to roll up your pants, take off your shoes and try your best to get the most juice out in a timed race. It is a tremendous amount of fun with lots of cheering and laughing. If your name is not called you can always get into the barrel on your own at the end of the event to try grape stomping (at your own risk:)). Futures for the wine we just harvested the grapes for will be available for purchase with a group photo of everyone that participated as the label. This comes as a 6 or 12 pack.
If you are a Cave B Wine Club member we sent you an email on Monday, July 8th with a link to pre-purchase as a thank you for being a Cave B Club member. Discounted tickets are limited to the individual wine club member and one extra guest at the wine club pricing. Each person needs their own ticket. Tickets went on sale on Tuesday, July 9th to the general public. We did limit the size to 150 people and we sold out quickly.
