You uwishunu readers are probably seasoned veterans of Philadelphia’s live music venues, like the Trocadero, Ortlieb’s and the TLA. All great venues, sure, but did you ever consider Chaddsford Winery?
That’s right. The Philadelphia region’s numerous wineries and vineyards — in addition to producing reputable varietals from Chardonnay to Bordeaux — take advantage of the warm weather to host music festivals and weekly concerts, so you can enjoy wine tastings while you listen, dance and sing along.
Over at gophila.com, we’ve collected our Top Five Wine and Music Pairings. Check out the list, then sip and be serenaded.

Hi, sorry to nitpick, but Bordeaux is not a varietal. It is a place. Red Bordeaux wines are made from a blend of grapes, usually including Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, among others. There is a US counterpart called “Meritage.” Most decent local winemakers make a wine like this. Just FYI. Ok, you can now make fun of my nerdiness.
