Anderson Valley Pinot Noir Festival

Filed under: Wine, Events

If you are a fan of the Pinot Noir grape, you can't go wrong headed to the Anderson Valley Pinot Noir Festival in Boonville, California May 19-21. The fussy varietal lauded by Miles in "Sideways" as being "haunting and brilliant" has been riding high on public approval the last few years.

The festival offers a variety of events from the Technical Conference, which tells you how to grow and produce the grape to the more freewheeling social barbecue at the Goldeneye Winery. The grand tasting will be held at Scharffenberger Cellars in Philo and costs $85. On Saturday, May 20, there are six winemaker dinners being held. Each one costs $150 a ticket (the Roederer and Goldeneye dinners are already sold out) and include a decadent assortment of wine and food pairings.
