The Garagiste Festival is one of the most unique and influential wine events in the world.

Recently named the #1 Best Wine Festival in America by USA Today, these extremely popular, sold-out events bring over 50 hard-to-find, ultra-premium, micro-production wineries together under one roof. Most don't have tasting rooms, can't be found on “wine country” maps and are not widely available in stores or restaurants – but you can discover these next-big-thing winemakers at the Garagiste Festivals.

If you are a dedicated wine aficionado or just want to taste a wide variety of wines and styles in one super-fun, no-snobs-allowed afternoon, c’mon and join us.

Taste from over 50 wineries pouring more than 30 varietals and 200 wines and meet the rock star winemakers who make them.

**Garagiste (garage-east) is a term originally used in the Bordeaux region of France to denigrate renegade small-lot winemakers, sometimes working in their "garages" who refused to follow the “rules.” Now a full-fledged movement responsible for making some of the best wine in the world - discover the remarkable wines of hundreds of true garagistes, who handcraft under 1,500 cases a year and pay close, hands-on attention to every barrel they make. This is the good stuff.
