Houston Wine Fest Media Party at Cork Soakers

The Houston Wine Fest Media Party was held last night at Cork Soakers wine bar located in downtown Houston's east side. Cork Soakers opened in March and has been a great addition to the area with its diverse wine list with many options by the glass. There was a good turn out and an enjoyable time was had by all at this comfortable and relaxed venue. Complimentary wine and prize drawings added to the fun.
The party was held to kick-off the inaugural Houston Wine Fest weekend which starts tomorrow at noon at historic Sam Houston Park located in downtown Houston at 1100 Bagby. The event goes through Sunday evening and benefits Texas Children's Hospital. There will be 200 wines from around the world, food pairings from local restaurants, other specialty food, novelty and accessory merchants with live jazz and salsa music.
Come out this weekend and enjoy some wine under the park's shady trees, a great time is promised and it is all for a good cause.
