Taste Washington! to Climax Washington Wine Month
From ten percent off bottle purchases at selected Washington wineries to fifty percent off all Washington wines at Rover’s (Sundays through Thursdays), Washington Wine Month is now in full swing. There are also special wine dinners, giveaways, and more, with full information at the new Washington Wine Month website.
As always, the month ends with the big Taste Washington! event, so good that it’s been extended to two days of tasting, bringing Washington Wine Month into April. Each day starts with a few educational seminars (with their own admission fee), with food lovers able to learn more about food and wine pairing on Saturday with the Canlis crew and Sunday with Tom Douglas. After the seminars, doors open (1pm for VIPs and 2pm for general admission) for the big tasting event, as well as cooking demos on the Viking Chef’s stage.
Look for over 200 wineries to share samples and information, and certainly don’t feel bashful when searching for spit buckets. Some of the area’s finest restaurants will serve up food to pair with your wine. This food-lover is looking forward to Copperleaf Restaurant, Local 360, and RN74, among others. And don’t forget Fonte Coffee Roaster along with desserts from places like Sweet Iron Waffles and Yellow Leaf Cupcake Co.
