La Cité collégiale will present this year’s taste-test buffet bar and also offer a free, and quick, hands-on gourmet tasting workshop in partnership with the college’s professional sommeliers and culinary artistes.” While the festival’s new partner, the River- Rock Inn, offers accommodations for those enjoying the after-hours soirée of the For- fait Pétillant, those festival patrons who may be in need of chauffeur service after
