Sold out event offers tasty selections

The Red River Revel hosted its annual fundraiser CORK Wine Festival, which celebrated 10 years March 28 at Festival Plaza in downtown Shreveport. The sold out crowd of 1,600 sampled an extraordinary selection of wines from all over the country. Farrari-Carano, Legend of the Vine, Biltmore Winery and Pacific Rim were just a few of the more than 50 wine offerings available to taste. Delectable hors d’oeuvres were served by local restaurants like Chianti Restaurant, W’s Steakhouse, Vintage Steakhouse at Eldorado Casino and Charlie Cakeballs.
