Thanksgiving is quickly approaching and it’s time to plan our menus and of course, our wine list for the holiday.
Finding a particular wine from our local Livermore Valley wineries can be a breeze with our easy search option. Go to the wineries tab at the top of the page. Once you’re there, scroll down and you’ll find a drop-down menu called “varietal.” Click which wine you’re interested in and hit search. The page will load with all the local wineries that carry that selection.
We’ve put together a list of some of the best wine-themed movies for you to enjoy with your favorite bottle of Livermore Valley wine. But of course, no movie night is complete without some sweet and salty snacks. A few Livermore Valley wineries are sharing their favorite wine and movie snack pairings for you to munch on during movie night.
Thursday night’s Quest for Pairing Excellence. This event kicks off the Taste Our Terroir weekend and it is spectacular! 18 teams of local restaurants and wineries create their perfect pairings. You’re going to wish you were a cow and had four stomachs to consume all the delicious food. Personally, I was blown away by the pairings last year. I’ve had a glimpse of some of this year’s pairings and it looks like they’re going to be even better than last year, which seems impossible, but it’s true. The best part is that you get to vote for your favorite red and white wine pairings! I love seeing who ends up winning and it’s announced with time for you to get around and try those pairings if you hadn’t tried them already.
In addition to those 18 teams tantalizing your taste buds, there will be ten additional wineries pouring on the patio and in the dessert room. Yes, you read that right, a dessert room.
As if that wasn’t enough there are some truly amazing auction items this year. There’s a cruise with either Retzlaff Vineyards or 3 Steves Winery, a chance to get your cellar stocked with wine from the competition, and so much more.
This event sells out every year, so go get your tickets now… seriously… you don’t want to miss this event! Here, I’ll even give you the link. CLICK HERE!
