The entire event is also accompanied by live music.
 
“Last year, Alpen Wine Fest raised more than $38,000 for our lifestyle empowerment programs,” said Can Do MS President and CEO Heidi A. Heltzel. “Fundraising events such as this one allow us to bring programs free of charge to Northern California and Nevada for people and families living with MS.”
