At the end of January , ZAP (Zinfandel Advocates & Producers) will be sponsoring the 19th Annual Zinfandel Festival.  This annual event will take place in San Francisco from January 28 to 30. On the evening of the 28^th, ticket holders can participate in the Good Eats & Zinfandel Pairing. On Friday the 29^th from 10am to 1pm, participants have the opportunity to hear from winemakers and then from 5pm to 10pm the festival encompasses the opportunity to taste wines with appetizers followed by a wine auction and then the ultimate 3-course gourmet dinner. The festival ends on Saturday, January 30 with an informal Zinfandel wine tasting where it is expected that 250 wineries will participate.

If you enjoy Zinfandel or want to learn more about it, this may be a great festival for you to attend. For more information, check out the ZAP site.

Cheers! Kathy
