The Garagiste Festival November 8, 2012

The Garagiste Festival in Paso Robles showcases high-quality, cutting-edge, small production wineries that produce fewer than 1,200 cases a year. Last year's sold-out festival presented 45 outstanding artisan winemakers to over 700 passionate wine consumers, members of the trade and media, raising the profiles of many of the winemakers nationally for the first time. The event also raised $10,000 for the Cal Poly Wine and Viticulture Program.

This years festival events will take place November 8th, 9th, 10th, and 11th.

The Garagiste Grand Tasting event, seminars and after-party will again be held at beautiful Windfall Farms, while specialized events will take place at other Paso Robles venues, including Vines on the Marycrest, The Vintner's Vault and others yet-to-be announced.
While the November 10th Grand Tasting event will remain intimate enough for festival-goers to have the opportunity to once again have true interaction with the winemakers, the festival has doubled capacity for this year's seminars, which were completely sold out in 2011. Proceeds from the 2012 festival will once again benefit Cal Poly's Wine and Viticulture program.
