You know you can’t use a hammer to tighten a screw or a screwdriver to cut a piece of wood\, and this is the same as the philosophy of grape varietal specific glasses. \nDifferent wine varieties have different characters and flavor profiles. The size and shape of whatever vessel you use – whether that’s a RIEDEL glass or plastic cup – will alter the way your senses perceive the wine. \nThis is a great chance to educate yourself and refine your tasting abilities. \nBand Schedule: \nSaturday\, Jan. 27\, 2024: \n11am to 12:45pm – Posterchild – This young pop dynamo will get the festival going. \n1pm to 3:45pm – Ponderosa Grove – This rockin’\, soulful band is breaking out. \n4pm to 7pm – Azz Izz – One of Arizona’s legendary party bands returns to action. \nSunday\, Jan. 28\, 2024: \n11am to 1:45pm – Brian Chartrand – Awesome band renders the best of Laurel Canyon. \n2pm to 5pm – Sandra Bassett Band – Channel the all the soul greats with this talented lady and \nher stellar crew. \n  \nTBA \nFAQs \nThis is a rain or shine event! \nAre there ID requirements or an age limit to enter the event? \nAnyone can enter the event free\, however\, you must be 21 to taste wine or beer.
