On October 20, from 6:00pm to 9:00pm at the Washington Athletic Club in downtown Seattle, event attendees will meet some of Washington State’s top artisan winemakers and taste their amazing hand-crafted wines, some of which are award-winning. Favorite cabernets will also be available to purchase for future enjoyment perhaps for the upcoming holiday season. Guests will sample handcrafted truffles, chocolates, cheese, and heavy appetizers.
The participating wineries are donating their time to enable the proceeds from the ticket fee to benefit Rotary First Harvest, a non-profit organization that provides nutritious produce to food banks and hot meal programs across Washington State. Meeghan Black, a weekday traffic anchor for KING 5 and co-host of “Gardening With Cisco,” will emcee the evening’s festivities.
“We are very excited to be the beneficiary of this event with Seattle Uncorked participating wineries, and appreciate their time in presenting tastings for enjoyment,” said David Bobanick, Executive Director, of Rotary First Harvest. “I look forward to tasting the variety of Cabernets and Cab-blends being presented that evening,” he added.
