Yakima Valley and Rattlesnake Hills Wine Trail wineries' Thanksgiving in the Wine Country events are a good time to try a new winery or vintage. The events are free, but some wineries charge a tasting fee and you will need to bring a wine glass.

In Yakima Valley, several wineries will hold a holiday open house with special tastings of wines, music, art displays and discounts on purchases Nov. 25-26.

To find a list of participating wineries, go to http://wineyakimavalley.org or call 509-965-5201.

In the Zillah area, you can visit 13 wineries Nov. 25-27. A $10 Rattlesnake Hills Wine Trail Passport offers 10 percent to 50 percent off wine purchases and waives some tasting fees. Passports are sold at the wineries.

Hours are generally from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
