The Newest Fall Classic – Healdsburg Crush
Posted on September 25,2019 By John Compisi
Healdsburg Crush is the Healdsburg Plaza successor to ‘Pinot on the River’, which has moved to Santa Rosa this year for its 16th Annual. This newly reimagined ‘Fall Classic’ will take place on Sunday, October 20 between 11am and 3pm on the idyllic Healdsburg Plaza and 100% of proceeds benefit the Boys & Girls Clubs of Sonoma-Marin.
It will surely be a fun-filled afternoon of wine tasting in this beautiful town which is at the apex of three phenomenal wine growing areas: the Russian River Valley, the Alexander Valley and the Dry Creek Valley. Approximately 600 attendees will be among the first to taste limited production Pinot Noirs, Chardonnays, and sparkling wines produced by 60 premium West Coast wineries. To add to the #deliciousnessfactor a selection of your favorite local food vendors will be on hand to sell delicious eats to enjoy with these wines.
If the fabulous Pinot, Chardonnay and bubbly were not enough, the event will host a large silent auction with wine-related lots and a People’s Choice contest for the participating wineries. Raffle tickets will also be sold to win either an instant wine cellar or a selection of magnums (need not be present to win).
Some of the spectacular wineries participating in the event include: Bucher Wines, Brooks Note Winery, Breathless Sparkling Wines, Clarice Wine Company, Flaunt Wine Company, Flowers Vineyards and Winery, Kanzler Family Vineyards, Keller Estate Winery, Kokomo Winery and La Crema.
Renae Perry, Owner, Papapietro Perry Winery has been quoted as saying “We love participating in this event because it’s a ton of fun and it supports the Boys & Girls Clubs of Sonoma-Marin. So many children in our community depend on this group for help with homework, a hot meal after school and the many programs that help kids be successful, healthy and responsible. It’s a privilege to be part of it!”.
We have enjoyed wine tasting on the Plaza numerous times over the years and Healdsburg Crush is the only approved wine tasting event that can take place there so come to Healdsburg and have the once a year experience that only Healdsburg Crush offers.
The Healdsburg Plaza is located less than 65 miles north of the Golden Gate Bridge. Carpooling is a great idea. This event is for guests 21+. Please, no children, strollers, or pets.
The first 25 tickets purchased using Promo Code: BITESFLIGHTS will receive $15 off each ticket.
