Reviews & Ratings
report as inappropriateWe had a good time but definitely the event needs to address some issues. Only one cheese booth...good cheese but just one. Long line for the crepes...good wines and plenty of them, however. Live music was also good. We bought tickets for the silent auction...good cause. Overall, although fun, not enough food, and too many rude, unfriendly people...blocking you at the entrace while one figured out which line to follow based on last name...dare to say a bit racist; we were appalled by the way some other partons acted. Please note my friend is from NY and she could not beleive it. While talking to the wine makers, people would demand for you to move mid sentence so they could get their pour...where do this people come from...pretty sad
report as inappropriateThe wines were not impressive and food samples were super-small tastes. I won't be attending again.
report as inappropriateThe setting was beautiful in the open area at the Spanish Village. I thought everything was set up and arranged well.
report as inappropriateThis is a fun event with some good wines and great music. I love Sue Palmer. Be sure you eat before you go as the food is disappointing.
