It doesn’t matter if it is held outdoors; the smoke and stench still manages to get under your nose and ruin the whole wine tasting experience. Most of the young crowd that shows up at these festivals are just there to get a booze-buzz. They’re not there to learn or discover; just to have a good time. I’m not against having a good time, but when it impinges on other people’s experiences, it just isn’t right. They should stick to keg parties or sports bars if they want to get drunk and smoke cigars.
