Urban Wine Xperience: Oakland, Here It Comes…

2013 Urban Wine XperienceAre you familiar with the Urban Wineries over in San Francisco’s East Bay and their Urban Wine Xperience?   If not, we’ve got a fun way to get to know them.  On July 27th, the 2013 Urban Wine Xperience is just waiting for you at the Jack London Pavilion in Oakland at 98 Broadway Street.  This is a rare opportunity to explore wineries and food purveyors from the East Bay, all gathered together for you under one roof.  Attendees at the Xperience can enjoy over 45 wines from participating wineries and unlimited summertime bites from local eateries between 1:00 and 5:00 pm that day.
