It’s that time of year again! Fall arrived with a bang this morning, after a brief Indian Summer. It’s also time to spotlight one of my favorite events: Pinot on the River, on October 23rd.
This spectacular showcase of Pinot Noir is probably one of the best ways to taste all of what Sonoma County (and more) has to offer in terms of Pinot Noir, and is also a great way to support the Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Sonoma.
This year, Pinot on the River once again takes place on the square in Healdsburg. With ample parking nearby, and a collection of tasting rooms surrounding the event, it is sure to be a bustling weekend.
A highlight of this event is the silent auction and raffle, with an instant wine cellar. 6 bottle lots from famous winemakers and much more available for your enjoyment. There will also be a collection of artisan food vendors, so bring some cash and an appetite!
