We are thrilled to announce the inaugural Bacchus meets Muskoxus wine tasting event at The Musk Ox Farm! At long last, the God of Wine will meet the God of Musk Oxen. Alright well, if there isn’t a God of Musk Oxen, we argue that there should be!

This is no ordinary tasting, rather it’s an ox-traordinary wine walk around the farm that pairs tasting notes with the different personalities of our musk oxen! Big bull musk oxen? A dark, robust red perhaps. Our Golden Girls? Maybe a glass of only the finest of wines aged to perfection will do. You’ll have to come and taste for yourself! Ticket includes a tasting at each of our five stations as you tour the farm, a commemorative glass, full pour of your favorite wine tasted, music, light appetizers, and more!

Choose your tour time for the wine walk upon ticket purchase. The first tour will head out at 3pm, with the last going out at 8:45pm. Let our farm sommeliers tell you the tales of the musk oxen’s personality traits as our wine sommeliers pour and describe the tasting notes, setting the scene for a perfect personality pairing! Finish your ox-perience in our newly renovated hayloft for a full pour in your new commemorative glass, looking out over the pastures and listening to some classy live music.

Tickets are $50. Non-oxoholic tickets are $35, and include all of the same perks but with fun oxohol-free drinks to taste along the way! This is a 21+ event, and as a nonprofit all proceeds go straight back to our organization and the care of our animals.
