Pittsburgh area - Live Premium Charity Wine Auction

Hey Pittsburgh area folks - would really love your attendance at our first true premium wine auction for charity, or even just sharing this with your fellow wine friends in the area, as attendees to this great event will be key to making sure it happens again and again, and that will be a good thing for all of us!

A group that I support (the Woodlands, a charity that helps children and adults with disabiities and chronic illness) is putting together the first true premium wine auction in Western PA. Fritz Hatton, the auctioneer for Zachy’s and Auction Napa Valley is hosting. All the lots are donated with all proceeds going to charity.

The event is October 6th at Allegheny Country Club in Sewickley. Info (and tickets) can be found here - Wine Auction – Woodlands

Please let me know questions. I did make sure Todd knew I was sharing this, goodness knows I don’t want a good thing to become bad!
