The story

About this festival.

Blind Wine Tasting with Pinnacle Imports is a tasting event held in Maplewood, Missouri on May 14, 2026 — participants evaluate six wines without labels to sharpen their palate assessment skills. General admission is $35. The blind-tasting format removes visual cues like label design and bottle shape, forcing tasters to rely entirely on aroma, flavor, and structure to identify and score each wine. This stripped-down approach reveals what you actually taste versus what marketing suggests you should taste. Pinnacle Imports curates the lineup, though specific wines and producers are not yet announced. The event suits both newcomers curious about wine evaluation and experienced collectors looking to test their blind-tasting abilities in a structured setting.
