Wine enthusiasts and aficionados, gourmets and gourmands, philanthropists and successful friends will combine talents and passions to create an unparalleled 4 day gala at the "Taste of THE Beach-Wine.Dine.Donate" November 6-9, 2008. This 4 day extravaganza will be held in the northwest Florida gulf coast, also referred to as THE beach, which is blessed with pristine white-sand beaches and emerald-colored waters. It's also home to a world class resort community where the residents sport a casual and relaxed attitude but are obsessed with great wine, great food, and philanthropy.
Spectacular charity wine events and the names Napa, Naples and Nashville are often thought to be synonymous. When thinking premiere events, one usually does not think the Florida panhandle. But this is no usual event.
What's the secret? A unique fusion of pure sophistication and southern charm combined with the fun and relaxed ambience of the seaside. Add to the mix the world's greatest vintners, culinary masters, exhilarating auctions, and the opportunity to positively impact the lives of needy children and you've got the recipe for success.
