Get ready for the 2024 Consensus Blending Competition! Our revolutionary, annual wine club exclusive event in which you become the winemaker for a day competing against your fellow wine club members to blend the next vintage (2024) of Keswick Vineyards’ Consensus Red Wine! With your team you will learn the basics of blending, blend your own wine, judge each others wines in a blind tasting and advance into the next round of professional judging, or not!
Saturday March 15th
Saturday March 22nd
Saturday March 29th
All dates begin promptly at 10:00am, please arrive to the Tasting Room early.
Each member may only sign up for 1 date.
Sunday dates may open if additional seats are needed!
Event begins promptly at 10:00 AM, check-in begins at 9:30 AM
Membership tickets will be $100/person and non-member tickets for guests at $120/person.
Each team in Consensus is composed of six people. You do not have to make up your own team. Tables of 6 will fill up as people arrive. It is a great opportunity to meet other fellow wine club members & wine lovers while learning a little bit about the art & science to winemaking. Guided by our winemaker and with the help of your new teammates, you will create a wine that will be blind-judged that same day by your wine club peers.
Lunch will be provided by BBQ Exchange, and every participant will receive a t-shirt custom-designed for the event.
***When making reservations, please let us know what t-shirt size you would like and which lunch option you would prefer: chicken BBQ, pork BBQ, or tofu BBQ. If you are ordering via our website, please note your preferences in the “order notes”***
Each wine club membership can purchase 2 tickets at the wine club price and up to 4 tickets at the non-member price to create a full team of 6! Please call the tasting room at 434-244-3341 or email [email protected] to purchase non-member tickets.

Yes! Lunch is provided, but crackers, cheese, or other snacks to have at your table while blending is welcome. There are always a selection of crackers, meats and cheeses available in the Tasting Room or other lunch items from Barrel & Board!
Check in opens at 9:30am so that we may begin at 10:00am promptly. There is no set duration for the event, but usually ends around 3:00pm
Even though the event is in 2025, all of the grapes being used were harvested last year and will become the 2024 vintage of Consensus Red Wine!
The event takes place in the winery which is a temperature control environment, and it can get cold so dress comfortably and warmly. Showing a little team spirit never hurts either!
