The Monterey Wine Festival

35 years running!

A platform for the regional wine industry and community of wine lovers.  After 35 years the festival will take a historical turn and bring guests along for the sips and scenery.  Champagne Shuttle to continue the party at The Monterey Museum of Art-La Mirada.  This museum is known for its historic architecture and the former celebrities that resided there.  Guests can enjoy the views from the hilltop and the art inside the gallery, sips of champagne and bites of chocolate dipped strawberries.  Hob-knob in the same location as old Hollywood!

Mouth watering experience from both the wineries and purveyors of food.  Along with these two ingredients live music, a winning combination. Wine, Food, Music!
