The Land of Enchantment may now have something in common with France. Corrales, New Mexico is home to not one, but four excellent wineries! Four excellent wineries in one tiny town. The fertile southwest lands are just right for cultivating vineyards. Come stomp some grapes (metaphorically that is) as you accompany us on this wine-sipping spree.
Corrales Winery, Acequia Vineyards & Winery, Milagro Vineyards, and Pasando Tiempo Winery & Vineyard are all located in Corrales, just outside of Albuquerque. Cheers to Corrales!
Admire the gardens. Host an event, such as a bachelorette party, at Corrales Winery. Enjoy wine tastings on the weekend, or during balloon fiesta when the winery is open all week.

These views of the mountains in Corrales never get old, do they?
Look for Milagro wines in your favorite local restaurants and stores.
Pasando Tiempo is a small family-owned winery located on Dandelion Lane in Corrales – and it rounds out our list of four excellent wineries in one tiny town.
In 2005 the vineyard was planted, and in 2011 Pasando Tiempo opened to the public. Volunteer to help pick grapes in season. Attend events such as wine pairings or movie night.

The mantra here is passing time, or pasando tiempo in Spanish – relaxing with good wines and good company.
Stop by for Happy Hour on Fridays for half off your glass of wine, and maybe even some live music. In addition to wine, try a specialty cocktail, or nibble on some complimentary cheese.
