American Riviera Wine Auction / 5th @ Santa Barbara, CA (probdate)

Start: Feb 9 2008

The Vintners’ Foundation sponsors The American Riviera Wine Auction and Dinner bi-annually. This black-tie affair is a fundraiser for Direct Relief International, and features an impressive array of wine and lifestyle items in the silent and live auctions. Guests are treated to a multi-course gourmet dinner featuring celebrity chefs, all complemented by an array of library and currant release wines from member vintners. The bidding is furious and fun, and the proceeds of the evening generate aid for less fortunate people throughout the world.

Our 4th bi-annual American Riviera Wine Auction and Dinner was held on Saturday, February 4, 2006 at the beautiful Bacara Resort & Spa in Santa Barbara. Hosted by the Santa Barbara County Vintners’ Foundation, 100% of the net proceeds was gifted to Direct Relief International.
