Boasting a fine collection of wine from
across Maharashtra and some international players, The Mumbai Wine
Tasting Festival is back as the Kala Ghoda Wine Festival 2012!
What is wine tasting without cheese? So there is a variety of artisan cheese from across India accompanying the wine!
Although the festival was marred with a
few snags, delays and change of venue it all looks to be for the better!
The Festival appears to be bigger and livelier than before!
They’ve gone a step further in the buildup to the festival. If you followed them on Twitter (https://twitter.com/#!/winefestmumbai) you would see how they actively let out tips about wine, wine tasting, wine storing, etc!
The promotion on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/WineFestivalMumbai) is pretty intense as well!
The fest is hosted on the 11th and the 12th of February’12 at Rampart Row, Kala Ghoda, Mumbai from noon till 10:30 pm.
The fest seems to be well planned as
well, with a wide variety of veg/non-veg Indian and International food
and finger food being available for purchase, Cheese tastings obviously,
Cheese and Olive platters, Barbeque Cookouts, etc.
There will be live band, music and karaoke to add to the whole feel of the festival.
For entertaining the guests, and here it
gets better, they’ve hosted grape stomping! Wine enthusiasts can meet
sommeliers, wine experts, and wine makers and even join wine clubs!
Ms.
Nupur Joshi - mixologist will talk on wine cocktails - creative,
refreshingly different ways to enjoy wines. Easy to make delicious
wine-based cocktails or "winetails" on 11th and 12th Feb from 4.00pm
till 4.30pm!
And to top it all up, there are exciting games, vineyard getaways, discount on wines etc!
