The California Wine Festival presented by Total Wine and More will once again return to Dana Point with wine, food, music, and of course the gorgeous Pacific Ocean! Happening once again at this sunny seaside setting, California’s best wineries will pour hundreds of vintage red and white wines, complemented by dozens of the region’s top chefs and specialty food purveyors serving gourmet appetizers along with live music and an ocean view. The festivities will take place April 21 & 22, 2017! I am super excited for this event as it is always a great time as can be seen in my pictures from past years at this event throughout this article! 🙂 Make sure you use the promo code: TOTALWINE to get 10% off tickets!
