Phishing or Phermentation – Santa Cruz Mountains Vintners Festival

On the weekends of June 5,6 and June 12,13, security employees working out of Symantec, McAfee, or Trend Micro corporate headquarters can forget about malware, spyware, and root kits for a couple of weekends. They have the opportunity to enjoy the Santa Cruz Mountains Winegrowers Association Vintners Festival. Approximately 50 wineries participate, with wineries open for tasting on the east side of the mountains the first weekend and on the west side the second. Some wineries group together in local restaurants for this event. Do cybercriminals go wine tasting? The world wonders. Something for amtso.org to discuss at their next meeting.

Wine tasting, barrel tasting, art, appetizers, music, sun, and more! This area is its own distinct appellation. A number of the wineries are open only during these two weekends and during Passport Weekends. http://www.scmwa.com/passport/wineries.htm

See the link below for more information. Tickets are $30 in advance or can be purchased at participating locations.

Avast or AVG Technologies employees can always visit the Moravia or Bohemia regions of the Czech Republic this weekend to sample wine. Or AVG employees can wait until September when Brno has Slavnosti Vina. Should someone meet a potential true love at the festival – Lednice is for lovers!
