Festivin 2023 at the Wrigley Mansion
On May 18-21, Wrigley Mansion hosted Festivin, their highly-anticipated four-day wine festival celebrating food and wine education with exclusive wine dinners, seminars, and cooking demonstrations, a Saturday night Grand Tasting, and a Sparkling Sunday brunch. A portion of the proceeds supported Almost There: A Mom and Pup Rescue.
We were invited to attend some of the special events. Here’s a photo recap (and a video reel) of all the fun we had. Next year’s event will take place in February.
It included a Grace Under Pressure Champagne reception with caviar bumps and a 2004 Jeroboam of Loriot-Pagel Blanc de Blanc with wine director Jason Caballero and assistant wine director Devon Jessee, Club Trésors Champagne dinner with Christine Mercnick of Grace Under Pressure, a cooking demo with Geordi’s executive chef David Brito, the Louis XIII after-party, an Italian wine class with Mark Yaeger of Giuliana Imports, and the Grand Wine Tasting.
And a nightcap in Jamie’s Wine Bar to conclude a great weekend of events!
