from last years event  and  Participants in this years event!

MAIN EVENT Sunday June 1st - Traveling by our bus though the Santa Cruz Mountains (west side) with its great views, we will taste at about 6-7 wineries.   There will be sufficient free complimentary appetizers at each winery. 

BONUS EVENT Saturday June 7th – we will meet in Los Gatos and  walk to 4 locations in Los Gatos –  see about 15 wineries at these 4 locations.  Option, after the walk of about 1.5 hours, we will drive to Redwood Estates and Nonno's for more wine tasting and free food.

You can do both events or either one.

You will need to buy the 2008 Vintner’s Festival wine glass, which acts as your admission.  Cost is $30 in advance or $35 “at the door” through the Vintner’s Festival. Special group pricing through Apres/Stanford Singles for early registrants is $25 for members. This “glass ticket” is good for all 4 days (two weekends) of the Vintner’s Festival.  (Last year those who said they were not drinking, e.g. designated drivers, did not have to buy a ticket.) 
  • Lunch - Do not bring wine - it’s not cool.   Free appetizers were sufficient food for most people last year, but you can bring food.
