Welcome to NipClub Wine Harvest Weekend!


Hi, and a very warm welcome to our NipClub Wine Country Harvest weekend! The pawty starts on Twitter at 2pm EDT (7pm in the UK) on Saturday October 10 and runs for 24 hours. The hashtag is #NCWH and your formal invitation is right here.  

If you're a regular NipClub-goer you'll notice that the site looks rather different and the link has changed. That's because our usual site is experiencing some technical difficulties and at the moment isn't working properly. Annoyingly, it can't be fixed in time for this weekend, but I'm very grateful that two sharp-eyed NipClubbers, @RustytheKitty and @rockstarwalrus, found the problem in time for me to find a workaround! 

So, what are we getting up to this weekend?

Well, if you were at our Winery Harvest and Stomp last time, you'll already know how much fun it is to help to stomp the grapes (and some of you may even have got the grape-stains off your paws by now!). If you haven't experienced this event before, I can promise you that it's a lot of fun. Stomping the grapes in time to the music from our DJs, with a glass of wine in paw, is an adventure not to be missed!



Of course, at NipClub we also have our own Winery, and we have some of the very finest of our own wine for you to taste. Quality-checking is very important here at NipClub, so you are warmly encouraged to open a few bottles to make sure the produce reaches our high standards. 


Trains are very popular at NipClub, but I ought to warn you that this one isn't quite the luxury NipClub Express you may have ridden with us before. This one is... well, I guess you'd call it more a bar-on-wheels. Given the amount of chaos NipClub caused last time we thought we ought to try to put a bit of business the way of the local wine producers, so we've bought up quite a lot of cases of red, white and rosé and we're relying on you to help us empty them! 



This year we have an innovation. After hours and hours of design (well, OK, it might have been much easier before rather than after trying @WinstonTabby's wine selection!) the NipClub Estate Winery now has a Maze! It's quite a tough one, and several of the NipClub staff who've tried it have got hopelessly entangled and have had to yowl for help. Can you do any better? It's a lot of fun to try!
