We may not go to many festivals, but we had a blast a few weekends back at the Sonoma Harvest Music Festival at B.R. Cohn Winery! It was not your typical music festival to say the least and if you are into this sort of thing, I highly suggest you check it out next year!
OUTFIT DETAILS: TANK ($20) / SKIRT ($32) / PURSE / HAT / SNEAKERS
We attended Sunday of weekend two, and while we are not mega fans of the performers we still had a blast. Heres why:
- The wine. This festival is definitely for wine and food lovers. They served delicious B.R. Cohn wines including those from B.R. Cohn’s Olive Hill Estate Vineyard, small lot vineyards from the Carneros Region, Sonoma Valley and neighboring appellations. B.R. Cohn has eight blocks planted mostly with Cabernet Sauvignon, with small amounts dedicated to Petite Sirah, Pinot Noir, Zinfandel, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec. They also served Northern California craft beers which was perfect for a hot day in Sonoma.
- The food. The festival featured a variety of delicious bites from many of the area’s finest chefs and restaurateurs which paired perfectly with that glass of wine or craft brew. We loved the Girl and the Fig pizza, the Cluck you Chicken fried chicken sandwich, William Tell House oysters and Mariposa Ice Cream.
- The crowd. First of all, there were NO LINES anywhere! I’m not a big fan of festivals in general because of the huge crowds and lines that come with that. At this event there seemed to be the perfect amount of people, multiple vendors and little to no lines for food, drinks, bathroom or entrance. Also, most of the attendees were mature adults there for some good wine, food, music and chill. 🙂
- The hours. The festival was a perfect afternoon event. We got there around 1pm and left by 6pm (the end of the last performance). It was a perfect Sunday afternoon with enough time to drive back to the city same day!
- The location. Did you see the backdrop above? Enough said! The stage looked out to the beautiful vineyards, the B.R. Cohn property is absolutely stunning and just the right size for the attendance.
We will definitely be back again next year! It was a perfect day of sun, wine and music. Thank you B.R. Cohn Winery and Sonoma Harvest Music Festival for the tickets!
