Sonoma County launches Sonoma County Tasting Pass
10.06.20
In an effort to showcase the vast diversity of the local craft beverage community, Sonoma County has rolled out the “Sonoma County Tasting Pass,” featuring award-winning wineries, renowned craft breweries and cideries, and unique micro-distilleries.
The Sonoma County Tasting Pass is a collection of tasting flights and discounts, presented by over 20 craft beverage producers throughout the County. Offered for purchase on SCT’s website, consumers have three pass options, at different price points: 1-day for $44.99; 3-day for $79.99; or 90-days for $149.99. After purchasing the pass, it is instantly delivered to the purchaser’s phone via text and email and is ready to use immediately. When visiting a participating business, consumers simply present their phone to the staff member to redeem the special offer.
Each participating business is offering enticing deals, including discounts on purchases. For example, boutique winery Armida is offering a tasting flight plus 20% off six bottles and more, while Ace Cider is offering a tasting flight and 25% off the total bill.
The pass is the result of a partnership with Bandwango, a travel technology platform, that creates access to places and experiences for both visitors and locals to enjoy. Bandwango works with over 85 destinations throughout the U.S. and Canada, creating passes of all kinds.

Court Appointed Special Advocates of Orange County (CASA-OC) and Autosonic Concerts Safely Powered by Subaru, have partnered to bring a higher level of community awareness for local foster youth through the Drive-In Concert Experience with upcoming shows, October 16 – 18.
Autosonic is a LIVE entertainment concept in response to the COVID-19 crisis. As the official sponsor, Subaru proudly selected CASA-OC to be the beneficiary of this unique experience. The Subaru Love Promise platform is nationally, if not globally, recognized for its philanthropy and giving back to important causes that promote love, tolerance, help, and support to others in local communities across the nation.
"As we celebrate 35 years of providing a powerful voice and a meaningful connection for children who have experienced abuse, neglect, and abandonment, CASA-OC is honored to partner with Autosonic Concerts and Subaru. Your support brings much-needed attention to the work we do in supporting Orange County's foster youth." Susan Kenny, CASA-OC Chief Advancement Officer.
“We were thrilled to hear that CASA-OC was selected as the local charity partner,” said Eric Park, LA Zone Manager, SOA, “What this organization does for foster youth is heroic beyond words and in support of their great work, we committed to match EVERY dollar donated, from ticket sales and through the ‘text to donate’ opportunity during the entire series.”
During each performance, concert guests will wait in their cars for the show to begin while video instructions play safe and ‘contact-less’ guidelines for the evening along with other concert information. In addition, information about CASA-OC's mission and how to give back. Please text to donate to (949) 751-1168, with code CASAOC. You can also visit betterunite.com/casaoc for other ways to participate.
At the conclusion of the Autosonic Concerts Safely Powered by Subaru series in October, Subaru will present a check to CASA-OC on behalf of their team and the generous donations made by the Autosonic Concerts attendees.
