Charity Wine Tasting
Last week I was at an event in support of the Toronto General and Western Hospital Foundation.
A friend and I staffed a stand for Pravda Vodka. We served the samples in ice cups and the drink was smooth. I don’t normally drink liquor but this was smooth. A lot of supporters of the Hospital Foundation were there at the tasting which featured wines from around the world and representatives from the vineyards. The evening dinner featured an auction for high rollers. A Mercedes fetched $65,000 and several wine items sold for multiple thousands. A great event. I enjoyed supporting it and it was a lot of fun. Oh, of course, I kept my fancy hat on for the duration – several people admired the hat and my hatty spirit.
If you are interested in stem cell research the Foundation also supports that through the McEwan Centre.
