Passion 4 Pinot Palm Springs Returns — A Celebration of Craft, Collectors, and 
Connection 

Palm Springs, CA — [November 1st, 2025] — The 2026 Passion 4 Pinot Palm Springs 
Festival returns from 29th-31st,  bringing together the world’s leading Pinot Noir producers, 
collectors, and enthusiasts for an unparalleled weekend of discovery, community, and 
indulgence. Now in its 6th year, the festival has cemented its reputation as the premier 
destination for lovers of this noble grape — blending the sophistication of a Grand Tasting with 
the intimacy of winemaker dinners and the insight of educational seminars. 
From current releases, vertical tastings and vineyard storytelling, Passion 4 Pinot Palm Springs 
curates an experience that transcends the glass. Attendees can expect to engage directly with the 
winemakers and founders behind California’s most acclaimed labels, alongside iconic producers

“Pinot Noir is more than a varietal — it’s a dialogue between terroir and time,” says Festival 
Founder David Fraschetti. “Our mission has always been to honor that dialogue and create space 
for genuine connection between the artisans who make these wines and the collectors who 
treasure them.” 
Guests will savor exclusive dinners, limited seminars, and rare library pours — culminating in 
the Grand Tasting, where more than 60 producers showcase benchmark bottlings that define 
modern Pinot Noir. 
Festival Highlights Include: 
? Winemaker Dinners hosted by luminaries such as Sangiacomo Family Wines and 
Garys’ Vineyard

retrospectives
