Colorado Getaway in Telluride Full of Culinary Delights that Taste Like Heaven

Food-and-wine festivals, a staple of summertime in mountain towns, can be more than opportunities to indulge. They can also be a chance to give back— to give, perhaps, as much as you take.

The annual get-together known as Telluride Reserve, which takes place next Thursday through Saturday, Aug. 1-3, in Telluride and Mountain Village, brings more to the table than exemplary food and drink: its mission includes fostering community and kindness (as well as great meals).

The event offers a chance for guests to come together and share an experience, and for esteemed chefs to collaborate in service of a superb repast.

Head Up to Telluride Reserve

Telluride Reserve is a 3-day food and wine affair in and around Mountain Village that encourages guests to connect with creators in the culinary and vitner world. The 2023 event will be held August 17-19.

“We are incredibly thoughtful about the curation of the event,” says Nicole Jarman, founder, executive director, curator of Telluride Reserve and owner of Jarman & Co. Events.

Jarman and her team took over the event in 2023 after it was on hiatus for several years. It was first launched in 2019 before COVID with a totally different team, and Jarman is building a brand-new iteration of the event after taking over the name.

Brian and Sheree Thornsberry of Innumero Wines at Telluride Reserve Food and Wine Festival

Above Average People. Extraordinary Wine.

Some wineries begin with generations of vineyards.
Others begin with investors and business plans.
Innumero began with a joke.
Or at least, something close to one.
After spending the day tasting wine throughout Sonoma, Brian Thornsberry asked his oldest son, Jack, whether he and his wife Sheree should start a winery of their own.
Jack didn’t hesitate.
“Of course you should. You guys are above average people.”
