CALIFORNIA WINE FESTIVAL - HUNTINGTON BEACH - October 17-18, 2025

Voted Top Ten Best Wine Festivals in the USA by Americas Best & Top Ten

EVENT SCHEDULE:

SUNSET RARE & RESERVE TASTING

Paséa Hotel & Spa Sapphire Ballroom

Friday, October 17, 2025 - 6:30-9pm

This is an elegant VIP event for true fine wine lovers. The limited number of tickets sell out quickly (due to the rarity of the wines being poured). A sparkling wine reception is just the prelude to an evening of sampling hard-to-find trophy wines, some already out of circulation and impossible to find are poured, to an adoring crowd dressed in their finest casual/elegant resort wear. Top regional chefs will serve hot and cold appetizers while live music keeps things super cool. Paséa Hotel & Spa provides the perfect oceanfront destination for this night of fantastic wine and food.
