Santa
Barbara County
Vintners' Festival Weekend
April 20, 21, 22, 23
The annual Santa Barbara County Vintners' Festival Weekend
attracted wine lovers from near and far for an opportunity to
meet member vintners, taste their wines, and enjoy great food
and music over a long spring weekend.
The highlight of the weekend was the Festival itself, where
every one of our 100+ member wineries gather to present their
wines, often poured by the winemakers themselves. The Festival
also presented some of the best local food from restaurants,
catering companies and gourmet food creators. The 2012 Festival took place on Saturday, April 21st, from 1 to 4pm at The Carranza, on the outskirts of Los Olivos.
This weekend, wineries also presented their own events, ranging
from Winemaker's Dinners through library tastings and sales
to new wine releases and barrel tastings.
A favorite feature of the weekend was the Vintners' Visa -
your passport to twelve winery tasting rooms - use the Vintners'
Visa to explore new wineries - or revisit old friends.
