Still smiling after Saturday’s Grand Tasting at Haskill Creek Farms! 💛🍷

We couldn’t have asked for a better turnout or a more incredible community. From the first pour to the last toast, the energy was pure Montana magic—kindred spirits coming together over great food, amazing wine, and a setting that’s hard to beat.

A huge thank you to everyone who made this day so special: the passionate wineries, brewers, and distillers; the local food makers and chefs (including our own Co-Founder, Chef Todd English!); and everyone who came out and made this festival what it is. The photos say it all—the smiles, the mountain views, the moments we’ll remember.

We’re beyond grateful for the support, the friendships, and the good times. If you fell in love with any of the wines, don’t forget you can bring the festival home—shop the full selection at our online wine store: [link in bio or https://whitefishfoodandwine.com/wine-store/]

Thank you, Whitefish, for showing up and showing off your spirit. We can’t wait to do it all again next year. Until then—cheers! 🥂

Chef Jess Pryles () fired up the live kitchen stage, and everywhere you looked, there was laughter, connection, and that easy kind of joy you only get here in the mountains.

Don’t forget, we close out the weekend with Sunday’s Ultra Brunch—hope to see you there.
