Wine aficionados flock to Cabo San Lucas for the highly acclaimed Cabo San Lucas International Wine Festival. Chefs from Mexico and the United States concoct gourmet meals and experts present seminars on wines from across the globe.
There are mixology lessons and special cooking demonstrations to complement the wines. The grand tasting day is the high point of the festival where restaurants and hotels in Cabo San Lucas throw open their doors for a day of wine and beer sampling.
Participating wineries in the past have included Louis Latour from France, Ravenswood from California, Casa Madero from Mexico itself and others from Italia, Australia, Chile and Argentina.
Cabo San Lucas became a tourist hot spot in the 1950s and 1960s, when it started to grow into one of the country's most popular resorts. The corridor between the towns of Cabo San Lucas and San José de los Cabos contains some of Mexico's most lavish resorts. Palmilla, Cabo Real and Cabo del Sol are three separate, enclosed resort communities with fantastic golf courses, elegant hotels and expensive homes.
Four-day pass US$275
Grand tasting day US$150
