Not only are these producers some of the best in the game and offering special editions and experiences worth making the trip, but most importantly, they’ve stepped up their social distancing measures to ensure visitors stay safe while partaking. So this weekend, grab your mask and treat yourself with one or a few of the best brews, wines and spirits within driving distance of Philly.
