Pinestock A Festival of Music, Grapes and Grain by Dave Shultz  One
of the best kept secrets of Southern New Mexico is Ruidoso, a resort
community nestled in the Southern Rocky Mountains. Ruidoso has a lot
to offer travelers. Skiing, golf, fishing, horse racing, gambling,
dining and now, Pinestock, a "Festival of Music, Grapes and
Grain”. Pinestock may not be as large as Woodstock but I guarantee
you it will be just as much fun and a lot cleaner.
Wineries from the Southwest Wine Competition, a seven state regional wine competition, will man booths offering samples of their finest wines. Joining the wineries will be New Mexico micro breweries. A variety of other vendors will round out the festival. There will be something for everyone.
Pinestock will take place June 9 and 10, 2001 at the Eagle Creek Softball Complex in Ruidoso, New Mexico. A combination of two events, Pinestock and the Southwest Wine Competition, the new Pinestock has reformed and energized into a much larger event and venue.
