Pahrump Valley Winery

The Pahrump Valley Winery is in the community of Pahrump, about an hour's drive from Las Vegas. This desert winery offers wine tastings and tours, plus they have a restaurant, Symphony. Despite losing their first crop of vines to hungry wild horses in 1990, the winery went forward with new plantings and today uses those grapes (along with grapes harvested from other Nevada vineyards as well as regions of California) in its own wines. Take a tour to learn about the history of the winery and growing grapes in Nevada, then be sure to have lunch or dinner at Symphony. This romantic restaurant serves vintages from the winery and offers a menu of steak, seafood and pasta for dinner and at lunch, sandwiches, salads and lunch-size entrees.
