This week, we continue our preview of marquee fall food and wine events you may want to save up or book in advance for! A perennial favorite, the Wine and Food Foundation's Tour de Vin is a annual highlight due to the combination of early fall weather, a casual format, and a litany of wine and food presented in a "sip and stroll" format. The timing allows you to hang out on the Whole Foods rooftop during the sunset and early evening hours while sampling a number of new release wines and pairing dishes. To learn more about the specifics of this year's event, we recently spoke with the Wine and Food Foundation's Sarah Murray about pairings, pregaming, and this year's unique wine focus. more ›

The weather is warm, the wildflowers are out, and it's nice to get out to the park. To that end, the Wine and Food Foundation is starting a new Spring tradition at wedding hot spot Zilker Park Clubhouse. On Wednesday, four wine distributors will pour over 100 of their new release wines at the first annual Spring Fling from 6 to 9pm. Distributors Prestige Cellars, Ambiente Importing, Pioneer, and Horizon Wines will show off a literal world of wines designed for spring and summer sipping. This all takes place in the comfy confines of Zilker Park, where you can relax after a long work day and concentrate on choosing your new favorite vino for the season. more ›
