Redding Reviews Gives Viva Downtown 2014 Beer & Wine Festival Five Stars!

Can you say WOW!…what a great time that Joe the events coordinator of viva downtown and sponsors put on to make this event one for the books for sure.

As the evening unfolded in this social gathering of this size  it was evident that there was a spirit of unity bringing together the people of the north state.  My photo journalist and I truly enjoyed the people as much as the food, beer and wine when the two came together it made a memorable experience.

It was a wonderful event filled with great conversation, laughter and the cultivating of new friendships throughout the event while partaking of some of the finest food, wine and some of the best micro brews that I have personally have the privileged of trying.
Many of these vendors have poured their heart and soul into their craft.  The food vendors that were present created culinary flavors and textures that brought me to a place of knowing I was eating comfort food made with love.

It was very inspiring to joke, laugh and be enlightened by many of these vendors that honed their crafts in the beverage and food arts.  They were very professional, smiled with and a sense of pride of knowing they were personally giving their best to the people of the north state.

In all my travels in  reviewing many events similar to the Redding Beer & Wine Festival I know this to be true.  We the people of the north state know how to bring together the finest food, wines and micro beers in a social atmosphere which was by far was regal filled with panache.

All in all I look forward to returning to this event again next year.  Kudos goes out to Joe and his team and all the sponsors that participated in making the 2014 Redding Beer And Wine Festival a smashing hit.
