Saturday, June 28th will see the 1st Annual Wine and Artisanal Beer Festival held at the Laos Mar Hotel. El Tapeo Wine Bar is organizing this event, and like previous wine tastings put on by them, it looks to be informative and a lot of fun.
This time, wine shares the spot light with beers from micro-breweries from around Mexico. Experts will be there to offer their knowledge as you go booth to booth, sampling everything for one admission price. If you have been to one of the El Tapeo wine tastings, you know what a good presentation they put on. Rocky Point ‘foodies’ love the place, finding the right mix of quality food and an upscale setting. Appetizers will also be available at the Festival.
Music will be provided by local artists, with the main act being Nicho Hinojosa and his band (guitar, bass, and cajon). Hinojosa plays Trova, derived from the word Troubador. The music has it’s roots in the tradition of travelling singer/guitar players, of which he is a modern version. Probably the closest comparison is to folk music of the ’60s.
There is a world of beer and wine from Mexico that you may not know about. Three breweries and seven vineyards will be on hand. The 1st Annual Wine and Artisanal Beer festival will bring together novices and experts to share the experience of something they love. Located at the Playa Bonita Resort on Sandy Beach, at the Hotel Laos Mar, Saturday June 28th, starting at 7pm. Call 638 112 3189 for reservations and more information. By Richard Scott
