Q&A

Question: Hi Affairs of the vine. I used my special code to purchase my tickets for the pinot tasting (PinotFan) and received an early bird gran. Does this mean I can come early? I clicked on the Grand tasting and awards ticket, but because of my special code, it's says I am granted early access. Is this correct?
Answer: The electronic world baffles me sometimes. Ask me about wine. : ) There is no early access to the Grand Tasting. It starts at 6. Looking forward to seeing you there.
