Just steps from Waterfront Station 757 WEST HASTINGS STREET, VANCOUVER | Mon-Sat: 10am-5:30pm, Closed: Sunday and Holidays WWW.SINCLAIRCENTRE.COM ABOUT THE FESTIVAL

The Vancouver International Wine Festival, Canada’s premier food and wine event, has three mandates: to provide an informative, educational and entertaining wine experience for public and trade; to be a premier marketing opportunity for the wine industry and festival partners; and to raise funds for the Bard on the Beach Theatre Society.

VanWineFest grew from humble roots as a fundraising initiative dreamed up by the late John E. Levine for the former Vancouver Playhouse Theatre Company. The inaugural festival in 1979 featured one vintner – Robert Mondavi – and saw approximately 1,000 people attend the two-day event at Hycroft mansion. By 1982, the festival attracted 45 California wineries, becoming known as the California Wine Festival. The ninth festival in 1987 was the first multi-national event, with wineries from seven countries showcasing their wines and the next year, VanWineFest moved to the Vancouver Convention Centre, where the International Festival Tastings have been held ever since.

In 1996, VanWineFest began shining the spotlight on specific wine regions or countries each year, with the French wine region Bordeaux as the inaugural theme. This year, the theme countries are Spain and Portugal, with 38 wineries from Spain and 20 from Portugal traveling to Vancouver.

Today VanWineFest attracts some of the biggest industry names from around the world and is firmly established as the continent’s premier wine event and among the biggest, best and oldest wine events in the world. It features wine tastings and pairings, wine dinners and lunches, educational seminars and culinary competitions. This is a rare opportunity to meet owners, winemakers and senior representatives from wineries around the globe.

6-11 p.m. Fairmont Hotel Vancouver

The main fundraising event for Bard on the Beach is the annual Bacchanalia Gala Dinner + Auction, one of the most spectacular wine and food events in the city - an evening of incredible wine, inventive food pairings, and unparalleled opportunities to enhance your wine cellar.

On Saturday, the Bacchanalia Gala kicked off the 2018 Vancouver International Wine Festival with a Cava reception at 6 p.m., followed by nine outstanding wines paired with an exquisite five-course menu prepared by the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver’s executive chef Cameron Ballendine. All of this was topped off with live music and dancing. And if that’s not enough, live and silent auctions throughout the evening featured unique and rare wines, plus exciting wine and Bard-related experiences. A must for any serious wine collector!

To begin with, Portugal has more than 250 indigenous grape varieties, most of which are planted nowhere else in the world. Many vineyards have multiple grapes planted within them, resulting in wines that celebrate the myriad possibilities of blending rather than one single variety. Lisboa Tejo Land and climate also play an important role in Portugal’s enological versatility – in a country one-quarter size of California, its starkly varied geology produces wine as diverse as the light, spritzy Vinho Verde and the deeply complex Port. Alentejo Azores Península De Portugal has 14 distinct regions that encompass 28 DOCs (Denominao Setúbal de rigem Controlada), including the fi rst Demarcated and Regulated wine region in the world – The Douro Valley, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
