About
SAVE THE DATE! The 5th annual Bellingham Northwest Wine Festival is scheduled for Saturday, July 25th, 2020 at the Four Points by Sheraton Grand Ballroom.
The Festival will include both a public wine tasting and the announcement of all medal-winning wines entered in an earlier judged competition. This year's event will feature up to 60 wineries from the Pacific Northwest along with six restaurants from the Whatcom County area.
Whether you’re a serious wineophile or have only limited experience with wines, the Festival is a great opportunity to meet winemakers, enjoy a nosh or two, and sample an amazing selection of Pacific Northwest wines!
An order form for post-event wine purchases by Festival attendees will be available through Seifert & Jones Wine Merchants in Bellingham. That means you can order your favorite wines during the event and purchase and pick them up later to enjoy at home!
Net proceeds from the event go to the Whatcom Beer and Wine Foundation for distribution to a number of Whatcom County non-profit organizations.
