« PS: Nothing Small About It • Main • Sonoma In San Francisco »
filed under: Events, Regional Spotlight
For as long as I can remember lovely rural Sonoma county has been eclipsed by its more glitzy neighbor Napa Valley. Which is why I was thrilled to find that Taste of Sonoma SF - a tasting and showcasing of the area's finest wines - will be held in the city next Monday.
Made up of six fertile valleys including the well known Alexander, Russian River and Dry Creek valleys, Sonoma is arguably the most prolific winemaking region in California. And the area is well on its way to achieving a well deserved reputation for high quality as well as high quantity output.
Sonoma can claim 7 of the top 40 wines of America according to Paul Lukacs, author of The Great Wines of America, and its bottles are appearing more and more frequently on celebrated wine lists throughout the country and abroad.
All of which means there's lots to expect from Monday's event.
Chefs using Sonoma inspired ingredients will be prepping foods to pair with the wines, and there are a number of other perks worth mentioning:
K&L Wine Merchants - my fav in SF - will be on-hand with recommendations on how to build your personal cellar.
Silent Auction will benefit the Junior League of SF - another of my fav organizations.
Live music and did I mention great wine?
Should be a really nice evening. Pics to follow.
Here's the 411:
