Everyone attending the Grand Tastings will have the ability to get a Purchase Passport from the Purchase Passport booth, set up between the top of the Grand Stairway and the Monorail Terrace.

Just come to the booth, give us your name and email address and we'll give you a Purchase Passport. Take your Purchase Passport with you as you wander around the Grand Tasting. When you find a wine you would like to purchase, just show them your Purchase Passport and the wine you desire will be ordered for you.

After the Tasting, we will compile a list of all the wines you requested using your Purchase Passport. We will send you an email with your order from the tasting. You simply send us a return email confirming your order (you can change your order at this time). We will have your order packed up and ready for you to come to the store, pay for it and take it home. It's that easy!
