You'll cruise along the scenic Pacific Coast on a Holland America cruise ship while enjoying wine and culinary presentations with Chateau Ste. Michelle's very own Culinary Director, John Sarich.
Each member attending the Orange County Wine Society Wine Auction (March 11) is eligible to attend and buy wine at this year’s PYOL. Attendance at the PYOL is open only for those members who attend the Wine Auction. What is the PYOL you ask? It stands for “Pick Your Own Lot”. For this event, we put all the wine that did not quite meet the standard to get into the Wine Auction on display, and sell it to you for $4 per bottle. This is a good opportunity to pick up some everyday wine at a very reasonable price.
The price is $20 per member, which includes admission to both events. Due to the increased cost of the facility rental, expendable supplies, food, and sales taxes, it has become necessary to establish this new price.

From a small gathering of wine makers and wine lovers in Southern Wine & Spirits of Nevada's warehouse the event has grown in 32 years to become one of the largest single day tastings in the country. Last year, the event included 7,000 guests, 117 suppliers and over 700 wines from 390 wineries and was held in a hotel/casino convention center.

A major source of funds for the college and a very entertaining part of the festivities is the lively wine themed auction of paintings, trips, collectibles, and rare vintages. Artists, winemakers, and suppliers have donated these fine items in support of education.
