'Stomp a Grape Like Lucy' at Lynfred Winery's Oktoberfest and Pig Roast

If the leaves have begun to change it can only mean one thing; it's time for Lynfred's annual Oktoberfest & Pig Roast!

On Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 29-30, celebrate two days of German singalongs, grape spitting and grape stomping contests for the adventurous souls!

Although the Oktoberfest has become quite famous for its grape stomping and grape spitting contests, the king of the weekend always ends up being the roasted pig, which you can enjoy either as a sandwich or a full meal, served with warm German potato salad and all the fixings.

Not to be missed are the grilled bratwurst burgers, their homemade chili and especially the fresh grilled sweet corn.

Those with a sweet tooth can visit the dessert booth for taffy apples, apple strudel or German chocolate cake.

Naturally all of these delights are fabulous when paired with Lynfred's Oktoberfest wine, which will be released at the start of the festival.

Those dressed in Lederhosen or like Lucy stomping grapes have a chance to win a spirited costume contest!

It will be from 3 to 9 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 29, and noon to 7 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 30, at Lynfred Winery, 15 S. Roselle Road in Roselle.

Admission is $10 or free for kids, age 13 and under. Tickets will be sold for food and beverages. Visit www.facebook.com/lynfredroselle/ or www.lynfredwinery.com.
