A Great Wine Festival in Banff

Festival Director Cathy Miller on why you should check out the Rocky Mountain Wine and Food Festival

One of the perks of being the web editor for a wine magazine is that you get to attend some great tastings and events. Over the May 7-9th weekend, I had the pleasure of attending the Rocky Mountain Wine and Food Festival in Banff.

Now in its 3rd year in Banff, the festival was created to provide Albertans with a fun, approachable, and affordable way to learn about wine and food. On Saturday morning, I sat down with Festival Director Cathy Miller to learn more about the event.
