Take a Trip to the Taste of Tulalip

Americans are drinking more wine than ever, and we in Washington state are beneficiaries of the trend. But how well do we know our own wines?

This weekend, more than 60 Washington wineries will gather together and share their expertise and superior products at Tulalip Resort Casino's Taste of Tulalip--a celebration of wine, food and tradition.

The two-day event, produced in cooperation with Wine Spectator, will feature a full menu of activities that will appeal to everyone, from wine novices to wine experts. A celebration reception and multi-course dinner (with perfect pairings) kicks off the event on Saturday, then continues Sunday with a number of wine education and lifestyle seminars (there's even one on wine and chocolate!), followed by demonstrations by award winning chefs, a Crossfire Challenge conducted by PBS Television's reality show The Winemakers, and more food and wine tastings.

A look at the schedule offers insight into the expert panelists attending, as well as the breadth of seminars available. Expect fabulous food, as evidenced by previous experiences at Tulalip, and if you choose to stay overnight, the hotel is luxurious.
