Europa Village Wineries & Resort, an award-winning destination in Southern California's Temecula Valley Wine Country, is gearing up to host its third annual Great Taste of Europa Wine & Food Festival. Scheduled for Sunday, September 15, 2024, from 11 am to 4 pm, this festival promises an afternoon of diverse flavors, new wine discoveries, and lively entertainment.

The event will showcase over 50 exquisite, award-winning European wines and unique European-inspired culinary delights. A dedicated beer and spirits garden will be featured in the newly opened Vienza Italian Garden. Attendees will have the chance to indulge in culinary treats from countries like France, Italy, Spain, Germany, and Greece, prepared by Executive Chef Hany Ali, who brings a global culinary flair to the festival.

In addition to the food and wine, the festival supports local culinary talent through a philanthropic partnership. A portion of ticket sales will go toward empowering local culinary students, allowing them to showcase their talents alongside seasoned professionals.

This year, the festival is elevated by a media partnership with Sunset Magazine, a premier resource focused on travel destinations, food & wine, home & design, and outdoor living. "We are excited to welcome guests back to experience the rich flavors and vibrant culture of Europe, right here in the heart of Temecula," said Jason Maciel, Director of Marketing & PR at Europa Village. "Now in our third year, The Great Taste continues to get bigger and bigger, promising guests an unforgettable journey through Europe's most iconic wine regions and gastronomic traditions alongside the stunning backdrop of Temecula."

Tickets for the event include all food and beverage tastings and can be purchased online. Attendees must be 21+ to attend.
