Thank you to everyone who made our 2024 Uncorked an immense success!
We are so glad you joined us for an unforgettable evening at Tri-Valley Conservancy’s 15th Annual Uncorked, where the spotlight was on premier Livermore Valley Wine, delightful company, and delicious cuisine.
Our event took place on Thursday, May 16th at 5:30 pm in Bella Rosa Event Center at Garré Vineyard & Winery.
This reception-style event featured crudité, charcuterie platters, and three main-course food stations offering a diverse array of dishes. Guests immersed themselves in wine tasting, savoring samples from award-winning Livermore Valley AVA wines—honored with Gold or higher distinctions at the 2023 Alameda County Fair, California State Fair, and the 2023 or 2024 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition.
The band Sugar Bear, featuring Steve McDowell, Carlos Ventura, and Lucas Sanchez, known for their wicked drum riffs, bass lines, and guitar solos, played live as well. Special thanks to our talented photographer, Ron Essex!
