Cheers to the Tiburon Wine Festival!

By Mary Swift-Swan

The Tiburon Wine Festival held on May 17, 2003 has mellowed and matured like a fine wine. It couldn’t miss as a successful event when a fabulous group of vintners and wine merchants, representing 50 of the best wines grown in California, plus a few great beers and excellent food provided by local restaurants combined with a beautiful day. For a modest price, hundreds meandered from booth to booth keeping their glasses full. The water booth was the first to empty all their contents--all that bread and cheese, wine, and sunshine made people thirsty. Some took a break to enjoy the Peruvian pipes by relaxing on Tiburon Plaza’s lawn across from the Tiburon ferry docks. Others piled into the Windsor tasting room after the festival for more good cheer. Be sure to put the Tiburon Wine Festival on your calendar for next year.
