THE GRAND TASTING AT SAN DIEGO WINE & FOOD FESTIVAL
The Grand Tasting at the San Diego Wine and Food Festival is such an amazing event. The Grand Tasting is the grand finale of the seven day festival. The 14th annual San Diego Wine and Food Festival is one of the largest wine and food festivals in the nation. It helps shed light on the San Diego wine and food scene and it is an international showcase for world’s premium wines and spirits. This is our 7th year attending the Grand Tasting and is just gets better and better every year! The wine and food tasting is such a treat. The setting on a beautiful sunny day on the San Diego Bay with lots of great wine, food, and friends makes for a perfect sensory experience.
There are 150 wine, beer, and spirit purveyors and over 700 different wines being poured. In addition, 60 top San Diego chefs and lots of gourmet foods are there to enjoy tasting. As a precursor to the Grand Tasting we also attended the Tasting at Sommcon held at the Marriott Marquis on the San Diego Bay & Marina. It is a chance to get up close and personal to over 100 wineries and winemakers and chat with Master Sommeliers. We enjoyed sipping many delicious wines and spirits at both events. We can’t wait for next year’s Grand Tasting at the San Diego Wine and Food Festival! Mark your calendars for next year’s week long event. CHEERS!
