I sure am! If you haven’t been, the Vintners Festival is a food and wine lovers’ paradise. There are over 30 chefs and restaurants offering tasty delights AND more than 50 wineries ready to tickle your taste buds with their finest concoctions. Not only will you sip and savor all the exquisite wines and mouth-watering foods that Santa Barbara County has to offer, you will actually meet winery owners and winemakers, get front-row seats to food and wine demonstrations, and groove to live music!
As a professional wino, I am really looking forward to checking out the wines this region has to offer at the festival. The grapes that flourish in Santa Barbara Wine Country are why the world bows down to the region's wines. According to Santa Barbara Vintners, Santa Barbara Wine Country has more varietals than any other region. Each bottle is a symphony of flavors: Chardonnay…Pinot Noir…Syrah…Cabernet Sauvignon…Need I go on?
This extravaganza is taking place on October 14, 2023 at Vega Vineyard & Farm. By the way, have you ever been to Vega? Let me tell you, two eyes and one stomach are not enough to take in all the beauty and yummy goodness this place has to offer. Between breathtaking vineyard views, farm-to-table menu options, an elegant on-site market, and adorable farm animals, there’s just so much to love and enjoy. Of course, you will see it for yourself when you go to the festival.
Check out Santa Barbara Vintners Festival for all the details or to buy your tickets to this popular event. You absolutely do not want to miss this!
