Famous wineries will pour their finest selections, ranging from fresh white wines to characterful red blends. The focus is on discovery: new flavors, unexpected combinations and conversations that arise at long tables or with a good glass in hand.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6202 size-full\" title=\"amsterdam wine festival wine\" src=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/2019\/03\/amsterdam-wine-festival-wijn-.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"869\" height=\"569\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/2019\/03\/amsterdam-wine-festival-wijn-.jpg 869w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/2019\/03\/amsterdam-wine-festival-wijn--600x393.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.amsterdamnow.com\/app\/uploads\/2019\/03\/amsterdam-wine-festival-wijn--768x503.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 869px) 100vw, 869px\" \/><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1443\" data-end=\"1740\">But Bacchus is more than just wine. Scattered around the grounds you'll find a carefully curated selection of food trucks, where chefs serve dishes that perfectly complement the offerings in your glass. Think sophisticated bites, street food with a twist and classic combinations that never get boring.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1742\" data-end=\"2040\">As the sun slowly sinks, the energy shifts. DJs and live acts provide a soundtrack that effortlessly transitions the festival from relaxed afternoon to sultry evening. Dancing is allowed, but nothing is required. It is precisely this freedom that typifies Bacchus: a place where you fill the day as you wish.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"1742\" data-end=\"2040\"><em>\u201cBacchus is not a festival where you just come to drink, but where you stick around for the atmosphere, the people and the moment.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"2042\" data-end=\"2387\">New this year are flextickets, which allow visitors to choose a weekend in advance and decide later which day fits best. Ideal for those who want to let the weather, company or simply the moment decide. And families have also been thought of: children are welcome and entertained in their own corner, while parents enjoy a good glass of wine.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever since 2014, Bacchus Wine Festival has been a fixture on the Amsterdam festival calendar.
