LAWineFest

One ticket. Wines from around the world. This year LAWineFest is pouring from California, New Zealand, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, and more, with new wineries signing up every day. September 12 and 13 at the LA Equestrian Center. Check the website for the full and growing list.

Six friends, one long table, a running list of favorites going on someone's phone. They split tacos and lobster rolls from tasty food trucks, argued over which New Zealand white won the day, and toasted to doing this every year. The kind of afternoon you text the group chat about for weeks. September 12 and 13 at the LA Equestrian Center.

Somewhere between the second pour, the appetizer from Ettore - Vino E Cucina, and the live music, they stopped checking their phones. September 12 and 13 at the LA Equestrian Center.
