Celebrate the 152nd running of the Kentucky Derby at Chateau Grand Traverse, where tradition, style, and wine come together on Old Mission Peninsula.
Join us in the tasting room throughout the day as we broadcast the race and full Derby coverage, culminating in post time at approximately 6:57 p.m. ET. Settle in with a glass of wine and take in the fastest two minutes in sports without missing a moment.
Our Derby-inspired menu will feature $2 classic tea sandwiches, including a Cucumber Tea Sandwich with cream cheese and dill on soft white bread, and a Derby-day Egg Salad Sandwich, simple, refined, and built for wine.
As part of our Sound Bites series, Jeff Linsell will be performing live from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m., bringing an easy, engaging energy to the evening before pausing for race time so all attention turns to the main event.
Guests are encouraged to dress for the occasion, with hats, fascinators, bold prints, and linen suits all part of the experience. Those who do will enjoy half off their first glass of wine.
Join us for a Derby celebration that blends classic tradition with the relaxed, welcoming spirit of the winery.
