Included in this year's ticket package is a new "Social Ticket" for those who want to enjoy all the benefits of Crush & Roll West, but who don't smoke cigars.

And for all of you I Love Lucy lovers out there, on Saturday, September 7 the public is invited to stomp grapes with the Crush & Roll Magnus Port "Crushing Crew" led by Jeff Steel of Roxo Port Cellars, the juice from which will be used in a Crush & Roll West 2015 Limited Port.
