High Museum - Atlanta Wine Auction: Anybody go?

I was debating flying down for this event as the tasting list looked awesome. Did anyone go and can you report back on the tasting (trade or public portions)? Someone mentioned trying Jacquelynn BTK 09 barrel samples, etc.

Thanks.

I participated as a winery- and as a co-host of the craziest fried chicken party ever.

Great times.

Well the fried chicken party was a blast anyway . . .

No, but I had a blast at the Golf Tournament.

I went to the trade tasting. It was wonderful as usual. Not as many people or wineries as in the past IIRC. Highlights for me were Ovid and Kosta Brown. They were both singing.

Thanks all. Are the same wines poured at the trade portion as at the public tasting?

For the most part yes.

I’m with a distributor, so was working while there… didn’t get to taste as much as I would have liked… but Reynolds Family, Wind Gap and Arnot-Roberts were highlights for me.
