The Oakland Wine Festival is led by some of most generous folks in the industry who help us bring an impressive representation of small, boutique wineries. Big or small, the respect, fun and excitement they collectively bring to the table is unmatched. The Oakland Wine Festival is an educational and charitable showcase of fine wines and delicious foods.
