Vincent Arroyo in Fort Worth, August 28th

Vincent Arroyo will be in Fort Worth August 28th at Colonial Country Club hosting a wine dinner benefitting pediatric cancer research for Cooks Children’s hospital. This is the first time Vincent has had a public dinner in North Texas. I’ve been to his dinners in Houston, always a sell out, always a great evening.

August 28th he’ll be bringing his flagship petite syrah, his chard, his JJ’s blend (which is a cab/cab franc blend), his cab and his port. They’ll be paired with courses selected by Chef Michael Morabito (formerly executive chef at The Mansion)specifically to complement Vincent’s wines.

Price is $200 per person, $1,600 for a table of eight, $2,000 for the Winemakers’ table with Vincent. This event is sponsored by Wine for A Cause, a 501 (c)3 charitable organization, so a portion of the price is tax deductible.

If you are interested in receiving an invite, please email me here with your name and mailing address and I will get an invite out to you. Currently the charity is only accepting checks for the event.

If you like his wines, or if you have never had them, or if you just want a great night for an even greater cause (my daughter is here today because of pediatric research trials), please come!

“The goal of Wine for a Cause is to raise money for pediatric cancer research and help fund research protocols at Cook Children’s Medical Center, so that Fort Worth will be recognized as one of the leading pediatric cancer research centers in the world, and that those who do not have the ability to relocate during treatment will be able to receive world class care and treatments locally.”
