NEW START TIME

Registration begins at 7:30pm and the event will begin at 8:30pm. If you are still in line and not registered by 8:30pm, you will be unable to compete, but you may participate. As a result, latecomers will be unable to compete for the winnings. The bottom line is: please arrive on time!

Here’s how it works:

The wine for this tasting is any Malbec red variety.
Each team of 2-3, must bring 3 bottles of the EXACT SAME WINE. For example, a team may bring 3 bottles of Barefoot California Malbec 750ML. Remember, it’s 3 bottles total per team and teams can consist of 2 to 3 people.

If you are alone and need to be part of a team to participate, let us know in your RSVP, and we will try to pair you up with someone else.

Also, please remember to think of a team name before arriving!

Food will NOT be served other than cheese and bread. Eat before arriving, or you may pay for it.

We NEED volunteers! If you are inclined, please donate your time to help in a great cause. We will need people to host, clean, prepare the wine for tasting and take score. If you would like to help, please let us know. Volunteers will be exclusively treated to a post-event celebration. TBA.

For all of the competition rules, please visit http://www.mbvws.org.

We look forward to seeing you and please arrive on time or you will miss the competition!!
