| - Lee's Wine Expo seems to be one of those events that you should try at least once. It may be your type of event, or it may be something you never want to do again. Either way, this tasting offers not only wine, but plenty of liquors and beer to sample as well. Be ready to deal with crowds and lines as the event goes on. Also, be on the lookout for discounted tickets. I was able to get mine for $20, and from what I've seen deals like that are always available each year.
Your experience here really depends on your expectations. Did you score $20 tickets, and your only goal is to get lit? Then you'll be able to do just that with a variety of alcohols. I had gone into the event hoping to sample lots of new drinks, and leaving with a list of things to buy in the future. At the end of the day, the only notable beverage I had come away with discovering was the pinot noir by Bread and Butter.
Even though I don't plan on attending this in the future, it's hard to feel like it was a bad deal for only having paid $20. Still, there are lot's of people crammed into one space, and as the night progresses these people get more and more inebriated. That may or may not make for a five start event, depending on who you meet. I stand by my A-OK, and would still recommend attending at least once.
