A modicum of highly allocated wines will be savored from Lawrence Wine Estates, including Heitz Cellar, Stony Hill, Burgess, Ink Grade, and Haynes Vineyard, throughout the evening. The event reaches a crescendo with the highly anticipated Live Wine Auction including inimitable experiences, travel to incredible international destinations, and of course, unparalleled wines! The Auction kicks off with acclaimed artist, Amy Burkman, crafting an inspired and spirited painting live on-stage, and is led by personality and Auctioneer, Fritz Hatton, under the magical stars of Napa Valley. The cuisine on Friday evening will be curated by Chef Daniel Gomez-Sanchez formerly of La Toque, French Laundry, and winner of Food Network’s Chopped Grill Masters Napa, and on Saturday night by Tamearra Dyson of Souley Vegan and Deborah Blum of Goatlandia Kitchen, featuring plant-based and local ingredients.

I am incredibly humbled and grateful for the extreme generosity of our vintner partners who have not only shown up year after year to support us on this journey, but also for the grandiose experiences and incredible and sought-after wines they are willing to share to benefit all of us, the animals, and the planet. I am also brought to tears by the resilience, strength, and incredible generosity of our Jameson family, community, and supporters – we cannot do it without you.
