The Off the Vine Wine Gala & Auction invites you to join us for a magical evening of rare wines, gourmet cuisine, and philanthropy. This extraordinary black-tie biennial event in Tyler, Texas brings together an affluent group of wine enthusiasts, business, civic, and social leaders, wine ambassadors, celebrated chefs, and special guests.

You'll want to check out the expanded lineup of events set for April 3 - 5, 2008. We've added an exciting cadre of intimate dinners pairing top local restaurants and wineries on Thursday evening; and we've expanded Saturday's auction event to include three highly esteemed wine ambassadors from California, Oregon, and Washington who present the dinner wines. At the auction, five hundred guests mingle with our honorary wine ambassadors and dine on an elegant meal prepared by our visiting celebrity chef.

The wines to be auctioned are donated by private collectors, winemakers, retailers, and distributors. The quality and importance of the wines are superb and those donated from private collections are often not available to the public. A number of high level travel packages and entertainment experiences are also offered, including wine elements.

Be part of this fun and festive event by becoming a sponsor, patron, donor or volunteer. Check this web site often for the most current information. Feel free to call us or send an e-mail for  inquiries regarding sponsorship, general information, or to be placed on the invitation list.

Salud!
