In October 2019, River Bottom Winery in Little Rock played host to one of the most exciting and spirited events of the season: the Wicked Wine Run. With nearly 600 participants joining in on the fun, it was a day filled with festive costumes, energetic racing, and delightful wine tasting.
Nestled in the scenic landscape of Little Rock, River Bottom Winery, located at 123 Vineyard Lane, provided a perfect backdrop for this unique blend of athleticism and indulgence. The winery’s charming grounds, with its rolling hills and picturesque vineyard views, set the stage for an unforgettable event that seamlessly combined fitness and fun.
At the sound of the starting horn, runners, joggers, and walkers set off on a course that meandered through the lush vineyard landscape. The route was designed to be both challenging and picturesque, offering participants a chance to enjoy the natural beauty of the winery while working up a sweat. Cheerful volunteers and enthusiastic spectators lined the course, adding to the energy and motivation that kept everyone moving forward.
After crossing the finish line, the real treat awaited—an array of wine tastings! River Bottom Winery, along with a selection of other local vineyards, offered a variety of wines that perfectly complemented the festive atmosphere. Participants were able to unwind and enjoy sampling an assortment of reds and whites.
As the sun began to set and the day came to a close, the Wicked Wine Run proved to be a resounding success. The blend of spirited competition, stunning scenery, and excellent wine made for a day that will be remembered fondly by all who attended. The smiles, laughter, and sense of camaraderie were evidence of a well-executed event that brought the Little Rock community together in a celebration of health, fun, and a touch of Halloween magic.
