SUN WINEFEST '05 - A SHOW TO REMEMBER!

Sun WineFest debuted at Mohegan Sun in January 2004 to a sell-out crowd of nearly 10,000 attendees and over 200 exhibitors. Designed for both the wine aficionado and the novice, the 3-day exposition is ideal for those that wish to expand their knowledge of fine wine, experience more varieties and educate their palettes. Mohegan Sun is a convenient and exciting destination from all across New England and New York.

The main event, the Grand Tasting, takes place in the Convention Center’s 40,000 square foot Uncas Ballroom and features the sampling of over 900 fine wines provided by international experts, winemakers and importers. Distinctive restaurants are chosen from throughout the region to offer signature tasting portions for a minimal charge and other culinary related displays are included. A state-of-the-art Demonstration Stage features presentations by our country’s best celebrity chefs and other special events while a series of interesting and enjoyable seminars are available to choose from.

Sun WineFest '05, and all its components, benefits important charitable organizations including the American Heart Association, Time For Life and The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
