Go Drink Wine, Have Fun, and Be Happy!

I will be gone this week and most likely won't have internet access, so I will leave you with a list of upcoming wine event. Thursday at Powers Liquor Mart they are having a French wine tasting at 6:00pm and 7:30pm. The wine expert is new to tastings at Powers, so this event promises to be good. Then on Saturday again at Powers Liquor Mart Small Vineyards is doing an Italian wine tasting. They always do a fantastic job, so go! That tasting is at 1:00pm and 1:30pm. Both of the Powers Liquor Mart tastings are free, so go have fun!

This coming weekend Lafayette is having a wine festival, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, starting with either a wine tasting party at 6:00pm or the wine dinner at 6:30. There is a cost to each event, so visit their website and plan accordingly. I would estimate being able to taste 15 to 20 wines an hour. There is a Gaelic Highlands festival in Canon City Friday through Sunday where you will be able to taste Holy Cross Abbeys wines and discover Celtic culture. This event also costs money, so plan what you most want to do.
