Gourmet Dinner Fundraiser at my church

[wondersofwine]

I want to bid on Auburnwine's next dinner!
I have in the past auctioned off a wine tasting at my home (half proceeds to church operating fund and half to AIDS/HIV patients in the community--referred to us by social workers) I prepare appetizers and bake or purchase a dessert from a bakery. I have score cards for rating the wines and tell a little about the grape variety, region, etc. I usually throw in a "fun" wine such as a Maui Blush I brought home from a trip to Hawaii or even an Arbor Mist one year (most of you are now gagging). One year the clear favorite was a Valpolicella Amarone. I think a German Riesling was favorite another year.
