My Ballard

The Phinney Neighborhood Association is putting on its big annual wine taste Saturday evening at 730 p.m. If you like vino, this event is a great one with 10 tastes and catered food. Purchase tickets online to get a break on the rate, ranging from $22 beforehand for PNA members, to $30 at the door for non-members. There’s also a designated driver option for $10.

There’s at least 17 wineries and wine shops represented, including two Ballard favorites: The well-regarded Ballard winery, Animale; and the wine shop Portalis.

If you’re planning on going, buy now because it usually sells out.
