8th Annual Golden Glass

The Golden Glass is a lively gastronomic and educational event featuring the year's most talked-about international wines complemented by culinary delights from the Bay Area's top restaurants and artisan producers. Golden Glass is the annual fundraiser for Slow Food San Francisco.

In 2012, Golden Glass will celebrate the efforts of approx. 100 national and international wine producers who strive to protect, nurture, and revive the indigenous and classic varieties of their regions. Slow Food will select the wineries based on their philosophy and their respect of the environment in collaboration with local wine importers. To participate as a winery or importer, please contact Jeannie Cuan here.

The wineries will be clustered in national areas throughout the pavilion to help attendees taste and learn about the regional and terroir nuances directly from the winemakers and proprietors themselves.

To showcase the creative culinary talents of so many of our Bay Area chefs, the Slow Food Plaza will pay homage to the open food tasting markets of European origin as well as more local food artisans than ever before. We expect to have more than three-dozen purveyors providing sample-size plates of their signature dishes, charcuterie, cheese, olive oil, seasonal fruit, breads, pastries, and gelato for attendees to savor throughout the afternoon. To participate as a restaurant or food producer please contact Carol Pan here.
