Apparently, the Charlston food and wine festival has been a success. This is the 3rd year it has been running and it had over 13,000 guests in attendance. This isn't as big as some of the other wine festival events such as the Aspen Wine Festival, or the South Beach Wine Festival, but they are making a name for themselves in the south east.
They were actually able to attract media from all over the country, and 47% of the people in attendance came from outside of Charleston, a good stat to have for a wine festival.
To catch this event next year, it is scheduled for March 5-8, 2009. Buy your tickets early in August of 2008.
