I was ecstatic to attend this year’s Sonoma County Wine Auction. Sonoma County Vintners Foundation (SCVF) was able to raise over $1.3 million dollars for Sonoma County Nonprofits.  This is exceptional since the money will be put towards grants for nonprofits in education, human services, environment, arts, culture, and emergency relief funds.

Sonoma County’s world class wines were highlighted during the auction, featuring an array of local wineries. This is a fabulous opportunity to taste amazing wines curated from the best of the best.

Another one of my favorite parts about the SCWA is being able to taste through various SOnoma Wines wineries share at the event including these!

It wouldn’t be a Wine Country Event without exceptional dining experiences during the events. The SCWA this year is no exception. The food during this event was delicious and made the event that much more special for us guests. Food was catered by Park Avenue Catering, a Wine Country industry leader in catering owned by my friend, Chef Ari Wasserman of Glen Ellen Star.
