L.A. Wine Fest 2011

Look out Los Angeles, Napa Valley is coming to you. The historic Raleigh Studios will once again host the sixth annual L.A. Wine Fest. Prepare yourself for a wine-soaked weekend featuring 150 of the country’s finest vendors distributing bottomless samples of more than 500 wines, beers, sake and spirits. This year the Make-A-Wish Foundation is the charity partner.

In addition to samples from the top growers, brewers, and distributors, food trucks from popular Los Angeles eateries will be on site to ensure that attendees will not go hungry. Local boutiques and businesses will also be setting up stands, showcasing their wares to festival goers.

But the L.A. Wine Fest isn’t just known for its unrivaled selection of wine and local cuisine. It has been called the most fun and most educational wine festival of its kind, and this year is no exception. For an extra fee, ticket holders can partake in various educational seminars that range from cooking classes to the fine art of wine tasting.

For those who desire a more exclusive experience, there is a VIP event benefiting the Make-A-Wish foundation Saturday evening. Perks include a special presentation from the famous Robert Mondavi Winery, gourmet hors d’oeuvres and a special live auction.

The two-day festival only comes once a year, so come out and enjoy the beautiful weather with fine drinks, delicious food, and live music while contributing to a wonderful charity.
