Bash

Wow, what a party! Around 1300 wine enthusiasts showed up for the three-day open house held at the Vino Piazza over Presidents' Day Weekend. Approximately 15 resident wineries poured and sold wine, offered barrel tasting, and provided sumptuous foods for their guests. Cantiga Wineworks poured its two 2000 Monterey Chardonnays, offered a special pre-release on its 2000 Monterey Shiraz, and barrel tasted two 2001 Shenandoah Valley Zinfandels. What stole the show, however, were the heavenly food and wine pairings served in Cantiga's tasting room, crafted by Annabel Rorden of Epiphany Foods.

For those who were unable to attend the event, or for those who anxiously await the next one, stay tuned for the next big Vino Piazza bash this summer!
