The 3rd annual Rocky Mountain Wine & Food Festival will be held at the Capri Centre, Red Deer, on April 19th and 20th.
This festival is sure to please participants that are new to wine, as well as experienced wine drinkers. For those who would like to know more about wine, this is a good chance to learn from the experts. Many other adult drinks, both alcoholic and non, will also be on hand. The Red Deer Rocky Mountain Wine & Food Festival is for adults only, and everyone is expected to arrange for safe transportation to get home.
The Rocky Mountain Wine & Food Festival will have a wide selection of wine, coolers, spirits, port, scotch and beer for your sampling pleasure. You will enter an area called the Grand Tasting Hall, where adult beverages and food samples will be ready for you to choose from. Sampling coupons will be on sale for 50 cents each, and sample prices start at $1. The prices will depend on product chosen. A Riedel wine glass will be given to you to take home afterwards.
Red Deer and area restaurants such as the Redstone Grill, Smugglers Inn, Barbero’s, and North 40 Steakhouse will be entered in the Most Sensational Sample Contest. Appetisers, small dishes and desserts will be in the contest for those who attend to sample and vote on. As you vote, you enter in draws for gift certificates at the various Red Deer restaurants.
A portion of total ticket sales will be donated to the Red Deer College Culinary Arts Program. Online tickets are available (along with more information) at www.rockymountainwine.com .
