California Wine Festival took place at our very own Chase Palm Park this year, with a two-day 20th-anniversary celebration of all things California wine on July 14-15.

Friday night started off at the Carousel House for the Sunset Rare & Reserve Tasting with American Idol alumnus Adam Lasher crooning in the background. Guests had a chance to sip mature wines, munch on appetizers, and participate in a silent auction benefiting The Foodbank of Santa Barbara County.

Saturday felt like the main event, with the Beachside Wine Festival bringing winemakers from all over California’s most prominent wine regions —  Paso Robles, Russian River Valley, Napa, Temecula, and of course, Santa Barbara County’s own Santa Ynez Valley — for guests to taste. Outliers included sangria from Spain, hard kombucha, and breweries to mix things up.
