2018 Wine Fest
  A Huge Success
 
 
About six hundred enthusiastic wine and beer lovers jammed into Downtown Lincoln on Saturday April 28th for the &th annual Lincoln Wine Fest. We had people coming from all over: Lincoln, Auburn, Rocklin, Roseville, Marysville, Sacramento, ... even the Bay Area.
 
 
Seventeen Placer County wineries and four local craft beer companies (new this year) poured their libations with appetizers being provided at 18 shops and restaurants.  At the end of the day, there was dancing, purchase of wine by the glass in the plaza or by the bottle at the "Bottle Shop" and a raffle of wine.  Fun was had by all.
