WEEKEND SCHEDULE<\/p>\n

All Events at The Veterans’ Memorial Hall. 1745 Mission Drive, Solvang, CA<\/p>\n

FRIDAY – FEBRUARY 8th – 6:30-9:00pm<\/p>\n

“NO REPEATS RARE & RESERVE” KICK-OFF BBQ: Get up close and personal with the winemakers as they share wines you won\u2019t get to try anywhere else this weekend\u2026and few other people get to try at all! This evening will showcase extremely limited Club Only, Library and Pre-Release bottles \u2013 perhaps even some barrel samples \u2013 that truly showcase what micro-production winemaking is all about. This event is like digging for diamonds with an earth mover. You are guaranteed to find more than a few gems! A Texas-Style BBQ buffet by Neighbor Tim’s BBQ is also included in the fun.<\/p>\n

SATURDAY – FEBRUARY 9th – Please note different starting times below…<\/p>\n

The day begins with one of the most popular features of the Garagiste Festivals, its engaging, educational and unique winemaker panel and tasting seminars.<\/p>\n

*SATURDAY SEMINAR: 11:00am-12:30pm
\n\u201cOriginal Garagistes: A Deep Dive & Tasting with Ken Brown\u201d<\/p>\n

We continue our series with a chat and taste with another Central Coast winemaking legend – Ken Brown!<\/p>\n

Ken Brown is recognized as one of Santa Barbara County\u2019s pioneering winemakers and innovators. He was among the first vintners to realize the tremendous promise for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in this cool-climate appellation in the mid 1970\u2019s. He was also the first winemaker to introduce the Syrah grape, as well as Pinot Gris and Pinot Blanc, to Santa Barbara County. Discover how he helped shape the Santa Barbara wine scene and why he ultimately returned to focus on small-lot winemaking.<\/p>\n

This seminar will not only give attendees the opportunity to sample a selection of Ken’s wines but will also chronicle, via moderator Stewart McLennan, his story and winemaking journey. This seminar promises to be a unique and not to be missed view behind the man and his amazing career.<\/p>\n

*The seminar is only available as part of the WEEKEND PASS* or Saturday VIP TICKET, which also includes a Wine Country Box Lunch provided by Succulant Cafe and (1) hour early access to the Grand Tasting.<\/p>\n

Saturday continues with the Grand Tasting from 2-5pm showcasing over 40 winemakers pouring 100+ wines and 20+ varietals.<\/p>\n

There will be a limited number of Early Access Tickets available, which gives attendees an extra hour of tasting from 1-2pm. More time = more wines to discover. These tickets grant you 4 hours of tasting so you will have plenty of time to chat, taste and explore.<\/p>\n

*Limited Weekend Passes Available – For those of you who want to attend ALL of our events, we have created a Weekend Pass that gets you into both Friday’s Kick-Off Party and Saturday’s VIP All-Day Seminar & Tasting for just $150. Only 50 passes available – no coupon code needed!<\/p>\n
