Sunday is a good day for enjoying wine in San Francisco. Why is that? Because Sunday is the day of the San Francisco weekly Farmer’s Market for Wine. This farmer’s market is located Outside in Historic Del Monte Square, next to The Cannery, in San Francisco on 485 Jefferson Street in San Francisco, CA.
Like all farmer’s markets, you can come out and get great deals and have a good time. This week on September 26th there will be dozens of wines from all over California. And, of course you get the benefits just like a regular farmers market of meeting the winemakers, talking with winery owners, and exploring locally produced wine.
You have the added bonus of visiting tasting rooms for Wattle Creek, Winery Collective, Buena Vista Carneros, Wines of California, and Cellar 360. The price seems right at $17.50 in advance and $20 at the door from 1 pm to 4pm.
You can get more information on enjoying wine at San Francisco’s Weekly Farmer’s Market by visiting the following website SF Wine Market – San Francisco’s Weekly Farmer’s Market for Wine or visiting their Facebook Page

If you are in the Finger Lakes wine region of upstate New York, especially in the area of Fairport New York, I would recommend you visit Casa Larga Vineyards. This award winning producer of high quality wines has won many awards including Best in Category for their 2006 Fiori Vidal Icewine in the 2010 New York State Fair.
And if you are in the area the weekend of September 19th 2010, you must attend their Purple Foot Festival. They bill this festival as a way to “Experience the Italian way of living with wine, food and family.” If you are interested in learning about enjoying wine and the wine lifestyle this is one event you don’t want to miss. There will be grape stomping, live music, wine tastings and seminars. Since it a family event you can bring the kids for hay rides in the vineyard and many more fun activities. This event goes from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm and tickets can be bought at the door (Under 21 free). For more information visit their website at www.CasaLarga.com
Even if you can’t visit for the festival their wine shop has wine tastings all year round. I would recommend you try the Fiori Vidal or the Fiori Cabernet Franc or both. If you have no plans for visiting the region you can still take advantage of their wines by buying online. Just go to their website and click on the tab for buying online.
