🍷 “The Wine Group? Oh, so it’s a group project?”
Yep—and for once, everyone actually did their part* 😏

We’re excited to have The Wine Group joining this year’s Cheese & Wine Festival on Saturday, October 11th at the Riverbank Community Center! These legends have been behind some of the world’s favorite wines, turning grapes into greatness long before it was cool to “pair it with cheese.”

Whether you like your wine bold, crisp, or “I can’t pronounce this but it’s delicious,” The Wine Group’s lineup has you covered.

🍇 Wine Tasting Sessions:
• 12:00 PM – 1:30 PM
• 2:00 PM – 3:30 PM
• 4:00 PM – 5:30 PM

🎟️ $30 online (gold star for planning ahead) | $40 at the door (still worth the sip).

Because when it comes to The Wine Group, group work never tasted so good. 🍷👏

🐔🍟 ONE LOVE. ONE FESTIVAL. 🍟🐔
Guess who’s bringing the flavor to the Cheese & Wine Festival? That’s right — Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers is stepping up as a sponsor! 🎉🍷

Known for their crave-worthy chicken, crispy crinkle-cut fries, and that legendary Cane’s Sauce (you know the one 😏), Raising Cane’s is all about good food and good vibes. And now, they’re helping us serve up an unforgettable day in Downtown Riverbank on October 11th.

Because let’s be honest — what pairs better with wine and cheese than chicken fingers that taste like pure happiness? 🙌🐔✨

🍷 “Nostra Vita? Oh, you mean Our Life?
Yeah… their life is wine. And honestly, same. 😂”

That’s why we’re hyped to have Nostra Vita Family Winery pouring at this year’s Cheese & Wine Festival on Saturday, October 11th at the Riverbank Community Center. These folks don’t just make wine—they live it, breathe it, and probably dream in cabernet and chardonnay.

🍇 Wine Tasting Sessions:

• 2:00 PM – 3:30 PM
• 4:00 PM – 5:30 PM
