Cornucopia's expanded program shakes things up this year with a new list of hot parties occurring every night and elegant winemaker dinners scheduled throughout the weekend.

The changes come with Cornucopia's signature Crush! Gala Grand Tasting occurring over two nights this year - Friday, November 9 and Saturday, November 10. Ultimately, the result is more parties, more winemaker dinners and more opportunity to attend them all.

Kicking off this year's Cornucopia is the House Party on Thursday, November 8 - a lively evening of wine, DJ tunes, over 10 micro breweries and featuring a lip-smacking delicious barbeque for meat lovers presented by Park Heffelfinger and George Siu of Memphis Blues Barbeque House. Vegetarians beware!
