2 19th ANNUAL WINE WALK winewalk.org

OOn behalf of the Downtown San Mateo Association, welcome to the 19th Annual Wine Walk. This year, we’re excited to introduce you to a wide variety of retailers and an exciting array of wines -- both California and international. Several local restaurants are offering food pairings in our tasting rooms, so look for them as well.

This program will serve as your guide to our downtown “tasting rooms” in local shops. We’ve also included details on the participating wineries so you can easily seek them out in the future.

The Wine Walk is a great opportunity to experience all that Downtown San Mateo has to offer. We are delighted that so many new companies have chosen to locate in our neighborhood and become a part of our vibrant community. You are sure to discover some new restaurants and shops as you stroll our streets!

Thank you again for attending the Wine Walk. We hope you enjoy your day here and will come back often.

Cheers!

AnnAnn FienmanExecutive DirectorDowntown San Mateo Association

CUVEE WINE CELLARS 1001 Washington StreetSan Carlos, California650-610-9810 TASTING AT Cwww.cuveewinecellars.com

RED: Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon

The story of Cuvée Wine Cellars began with a passionate home winemaker intent on producing quality wines. Our urban location on the Central Peninsula does not permit us to grow our own grapes. Not an obstacle by any means, it does allow access to some of the most outstanding vineyards in Northern California. We chose the name Cuvée—the French term for a blend of wines, usually of different varietals and/or vintages— to express the collaboration of wines and winemakers.
