Angel Island
May 2, 2010 - 12:38pm
Here is some requested feedback from the inaugural May 1st wine event at Angel Island:
Positives:
- Weather was fantastic
- Views of the Golden Gate were amazing
- Trams to/from venue were timely
- Park service staff was helpful
- Wines that stood out were from Frank Family, Nicholson Ranch and Tudor
- Live band was entertaining
- Plenty of smartwater and Honest tea provided
Negatives:
- For those arriving early, check-in was slow
- Queuing lines for ferries although was to be somewhat expected
- Gift bags were cheesy
- Food sampling (other than from a chocolate vendor) was not included although stated on event website
- Could not find the listed breweries to be represented
The negatives were diminished for me as had a free ticket...not so much for my friend. Anyway, thanks Rob for the free ticket!!
