International Wine Festival of Manitoba

The International Wine Festival of Manitoba is on this weekend at The Forks. If you enjoy sipping 'vino' or would like to find out if you do, check out the festival on October 15, 16, or 17 to sample and enjoy wines from over 100 wineries!  They are represented this year with experts on hand, ready to offer suggestions and educate you as you discover different grapes from all over the world.


As per the MTS website, you are encouraged to stroll through The Market Courtyard and visit the Cheese booth. The booth features over 750 varieties of cheese from Fenton's Gourmet Foods.  Cheese- a perfect compliment to any glass of wine or simply by itself. There is also a Wine Encyclopedia & Menu Planning booth for assistance in wine-pairing.



What more could you ask for? Free admission!


Sampling tickets are 50¢ each.
