CRUSH: 2nd Annual Temecula Valley Wine & Culinary Showcase

This two-part showcase event will feature a winemakers' roundtable and a walk-around tasting with 30-plus wineries, a dozen restaurants, and more than 120 wines to try.

Plus, educational displays will feature vine cuttings from grapes featured in Temecula Valley's best wines, descriptions of each grape variety, and even newly-harvested grapes that allow guests to taste the fruit before it is turned into wine.

Winery owners, winemakers, and chefs will mingle amongst the guests, giving attendees a chance to meet their favorite local wine and culinary stars.

The David Maldonado Band will provide live entertainment for the evening as guests sip and savor a taste of Temecula Valley on the expansive Monte de Oro patio, while taking in breathtaking views of wine country under the summer stars.

You will be "crushed" if you don't go!
