US: CA: Revelers add sour taste to wine barrel weekend
Mar 6, 2012 6
(Pressdemocrat) - While the first of two Wine Road Barrel-Tasting weekends was fun for thousands of wine lovers, the event was not without problem revelers.
Twice on Saturday, limo buses were escorted out of wineries by CHP officers because the groups had drunk too much, according to executive director Beth Costa.
“Two wineries called to let us know they needed help,” Costa said, noting that arrangements had been made in advance to pay for three officers to be on call. “I called the California Highway Patrol (CHP) and they let the drivers know the groups had too much to drink and they needed to gather up the tasters and leave the wineries.”
