Park your car and taste the wines from 15 foothill boutique wineries while strolling the streets of this historic Gold Rush community.
Placer County wineries — Green Family Winery, Ophir Wines, Pescatore Winery, Mt. Vernon Winery, Secret Ravine Winery, Fawnridge Winery, Rancho Roble, Dono Dal Cielo and Viña Castellano will be joined by other foothill wineries — Naggiar Vineyard & Winery and Pilot Peak Winery will be pouring during the 2006 Auburn Wine Festival. Several of these wineries are not open to the public so this is a not-to-be-missed opportunity to sample these wines.

Musicians will be providing non-stop music in the streets.
