A new event at this Festival is Wine is Blind, held at Pendry Park City on Friday, Oct. 6. Here’s what the organizers have to say about this fun evening. “How well do you know your favorite wines? Could you identify them during a blind tasting? We’re putting your taste buds to the test at the Park City Wine Festival. During this late-night, blind wine tasting you’ll get to know mystery wines and vote for your favorite based on the flavor profile alone. The wines presented are all 90+ point rated and will be concealed in mystery bags. All you’ll know is if it’s red or white. Each guest will be given a journal at the beginning of the tasting to take notes on the mystery wines. Snack on decadent desserts and make your way to the dance floor, a live DJ will be playing. Be sure to vote for your favorite before the night is over! The best mystery bottle will be awarded. The night will end with a wine reveal so that you can meet your “wine” in a million. Wear your cocktail attire and get ready to fall in love with a new wine… all without seeing the bottle first.”
