Festa di Vino Ticket Giveaway!
Mark your calendars-May 1st is the Point West Rotary Club’s 8th Annual Festa di Vino! A few SacFoodies attended this event last year and had a great time sampling local food and wine and even took a quick ride on the Aerospace museum’s flight simulator.
Festa di Vino will take place at the Aerospace Museum of California from 7-10 p.m. and will feature tastings from more than 20 wineries including Rail Bridge Cellars, Pedroncelli and Latcham Vineyards. Restaurants and sweet treats such as PF Chang’s, 33rd Street Bistro and Cupcake Craving will also be on hand to tempt your taste buds.
Not only will you sample great wine and food, a portion of the event’s proceeds will benefit Women’s Empowerment, a program that helps Sacramento’s homeless women find homes and jobs so they can support their families. The Point West Rotary Club of Sacramento has contributed over $1 million to area charities in their 25 years of service.
