Victoria Wine Festival announces roses and rose summer soirée
The Victoria International Wine Festival has added a special rose-themed event to its calendar this year.
On July 27 at the Parkside Hotel and Spa, ‘Roses and Rosé’ will feature — as you may have guessed — rosé wines, accompanied by floral arrangements from Brown’s Florist.
Plus, live classical music and experts, including sommeliers and horticulturalists, will help guide you through the land of roses and rosé. Get in the spirit, too: guests are encouraged to don any shade of pink.
“We wanted to create a summer event that plays on the connection between roses and the story of wine,” says David Bain, director for The Victoria International Wine Festival.
“Think of smelling a flower and finding those same notes in a wine.”
