The Fort Worth Food & Wine Foundation is hosting a one-night-only tasting event that’s not to be missed ― the Napa Valley Wine Experience. Presented in partnership with the Napa Valley Vinters Association. To say this is a rare opportunity is an understatement. This event is for bona fide wine-geeks, passionate collectors, and the Napa-curious alike.
Thirty-six top wineries will be pouring their best at the Napa Valley Wine Experience. It will be held on October 23 from 6 pm to 8:30 pm at The Ostreum event venue in Fort Worth’s Southside.
Fort Worth Food + Wine Foundation says tickets to this very special event are going fast, with only about 100 left to sell. So, consider this a fair warning.
Napa Valley Wine Experience In Fort Worth For The First Time Ever
The Napa Valley Vintners Association does an annual tour through Texas ― as wine drinkers in the Lone Star State are some of their most loyal customers.
“This is the first time ever to get everyone together in one place. And, this year it’s converging in Fort Worth,” says Richard King, the co-owner of Ellerbe Fine Foods, and Fort Worth Food + Wine Foundation board member.
This is your chance to connect directly with the people behind the bottle. These acclaimed Napa Valley wineries will be represented by their winemaker, proprietor, or estate principal. It won’t be a volunteer pouring for you. You’ll learn the authentic stories and taste pours straight from Napa’s most respected producers.
“You’ll get to meet the people who lead these wineries,” King says. “I believe in connections, and this is an opportunity for local wine lovers to make those connections in Napa that they’ve always wanted to have.”
“It’s a rare opportunity to meet the makers themselves. They know the backstory behind every glass. We just don’t see that very often in North Texas.”
Your Next Trip to Napa Valley Should Begin Here
“Napa is one of the best places to visit,” King says, “Texans have long been enthusiasts of Napa wines. We embrace them in our restaurants and our retail shops.”
Many of the wines these producers will be showcasing at The Napa Valley Wine Experience are bottles you’ll be able to find at local wine shops and on local wine lists as well.
“Having everybody in one room is very rare. If you were to travel to Napa and visit all these wineries, it would take several days and cost you thousands,” he says. “But we’ll have them all right here.”
Light bites will be provided by Westland Hospitality’s Magdelana’s Catering. This is a chance to immerse yourself in an unforgettable evening, exploring Napa Valley without ever leaving Fort Worth.
