The 22′ annual alumni event features wine tasting by more than 100 prestigious wineries from throughout the state, including the award-winning Fresno State Winery, and food sampling from more than 40 Central California restaurants.
In addition, there will be a post-event coffee-tasting, desserts and live jazz from 5:30 p.m. to dusk.
