Ten Things With My Wine
This is a weekend of “avec” or “with”. Wine is assured during the upcoming weekend festivals, so it’s a matter of what to select with my wine. For example, San Carlos Wine & Art Festival held Oct. 11-12, 2014 features art, 30 international food booths and a classic car show. La Jolla’s Art & Wine Festival on October 11 pairs palettes — red wine with red paint on canvas. Artists love participating in in wine events because sales usually go up when wine is poured.
