For four weekends (April 26\u2013May 20, 2007), they rolled out celebrity chefs and winemakers for fancy tastings, cooking classes, and enough “pairings” to make us start pairing wine with\u2026 more wine.<\/p>\n

Thursday nights featured celebrity chef dinners (so you can eat like royalty and pretend you know what “foam” is), and Fridays were Winemaker Dinners\u2014multi-course meals with wine pairings designed to make you say, “I definitely taste notes of\u2026 grapes.”
\nThey also had cooking school options and seminars on wine, beer, and spirits\u2014because nothing says “education” like taking notes while sipping your way through the syllabus.

Join us for fun!<\/strong><\/p>\n
