I had such a blast sneaking up to the mountains to experience the Vail Wine Classic @vailwineclassic this weekend! The wine hike and Grand Tasting events were a such a delight. In case you missed it, the Breckenridge Wine Classic @breckwineclassic is happening next weekend. Sip on wines mountainside at the Grand Tasting events or enjoy a smaller a la carte meal pairing and more. 🥂

If you’re craving flavors from far, far away, you can skip the direct flight to Tokyo 🇯🇵 to discover the Spirit of Japan in downtown Denver’s historic Sakura Square. There will be over 50 sake and spirits to sample, and food stalls with dishes like takoyaki, yakisoba, matcha shaved ice and more. Yum!! @sakurafoundation

For a taste of Germany, we’ve got Oktoberfest coming up in Vail, Breckenridge and Denver. Each city has celebrations scheduled in SEPTEMBER for 1 or 2 weekends. Get out your dirndl or lederhosen and get ready to cheers with a big stein of beer in your hand. 🍺@oktoberfestvail@denveroktoberfest

Foodies, don’t miss Denver Food and Wine Festival @foodwinedenver brought to you by the Colorado Restaurant Foundation. This is your chance to experience so many outstanding Colorado restaurants all in one place, over a four day food fest! See you there EARLY September. @corestaurants
