SEQUIM — For the fifth time, members of Sunland Golf & Country Club plan to present local vineyards’ finest wines this weekend at the Sunland Clubhouse.
The wine tasting is set from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday in the clubhouse at 109 Hilltop Drive.
Organizer Pam Grandstrom said the event began in 2006 as a way to have more social events beyond golf.
Opening to public now
In its first year, it was aimed to just Sunland members and saw 80 attendees, but Grandstrom said they are opening it up to the public now.
This year’s tasting features 27 wines from Harbinger Winery, Camaraderie Cellars, Olympic Cellars and Wind Rose Cellars from the area; Desert Wind and the Bunnell Family Cellar from Eastern Washington; Duck Pond Cellars from Oregon; and Mumm and Sandeman from California.
Unlimited tasting
Participants can receive unlimited tasting for the evening along with samples from Mount Townsend Creamery, Chukar Cherries and WeDo Fudge.
Sarah Shea and her accompanists provide music for the evening with wines on sale for a discount and a raffle.
Cost for nonmembers is $23 per pass or $8 for a nonalcohol pass.
Grandstrom encourages buying tickets beforehand by calling 360-683-6800, ext. 10, or visiting Sunland’s pro shop.
