2nd Annual “Passport to the East Bay Wine Trail”

Please join us this Saturday for the

East Bay Vintners Alliance
2nd Annual “Passport to the East Bay Wine Trail”

Saturday April 4th 2009
12-5pm

$30 in Advance
$45 at the Door
$10 Designated Drivers

One ticket will enable you to visit fourteen wineries, some of which are not normally open to the public, that will be pouring their wares at seven locations, within about ten miles of each other in Berkeley, Emeryville, Oakland, and Alameda. You can sample some amazing wine - whether it be Zinfandel, Petit Verdot, Cabernet, Viognier, or many others - all without the pressure or price of Napa Valley. Plus, instead of driving over an hour, your trip could take only minutes. There might be a winery down the street or across town, if you just know where to look.

Each location will offer food to go along with the tasting, and some will provide entertainment, as well. Participants will receive a passport booklet detailing all the wineries, along with a souvenir glass. Grab some friends and satisfy your thirst for wine, all the while supporting local businesses.
