Overall, the Wine & Spirits Festival ended up being a rather intimate event for celebrating these two libation styles. If you can find a gem like this one you can easily start to cover your ticket fee in just a few repeat samples (as I most certainly did on this bottle alone). I found some favorite wines from French producers Chateau Pegau and Notorious and could've been found getting as many samples as allowed of the ~$60 Chateauneuf-du-Pape bottle Pegau brought. Whether you were looking for rum, tequila, whiskey, vodka, cocktails, local wine, California wine, or options from Europe or elsewhere abroad, there truly was something for everyone at this event.Īngie found new favorite of gins and whiskeys from producers like Revivalist (PA-based!) and Calumet although also would've been tempted by the spread at Maggie's Farm Rum if we didn't already own every bottle they make. While we would say that this event was slightly heavier on the spirits than the wine, we found that there was a nice mix of all styles available. So whenever we found a sample worth sharing, we simply remembered it and returned at the end of the night to try when we were ready to make a hard switch on our drink of choice. ![]() This ended up being a great decision because, to be quite honest, going back and forth between dark spirits and wine is an easy way to blow out your palate. We were guests of Pittsburgh Magazine for this party at Rivers Casino in its inaugural year and wanted to share a bit more of what this one was like in this one! In 2022, Pittsburgh Magazine returned with a new spring party, aptly named the Wine & Spirits Festival, to go along with their other libations-themed celebrations (separate wine and whiskey festivals typically taking place in the fall). In the past, we have attended events like their Best of the Burgh Party, as well as their Best Restaurants Party, which, in our opinion, is one of the greatest celebrations you can attend every year if you love our local Pittsburgh restaurants. We always want a good party in Pittsburgh, and when it comes to a food and beverage celebration, Pittsburgh Magazine always does it right. ![]() ![]() Please confirm these directly with any business or attraction prior to visiting.
