Guests of the 5th edition of the Soirée du Vin wine auction gathered at the Sharon Heights Golf & Country Club on Sunday, October 10, 2010, to celebrate their love of fine wines and fine food, and to raise funds for INTL*'s Charlotte de Géry Endowment Fund. Approximately $60,000 was raised in one evening, thanks to the guests, bidders, donors, supporters, and volunteers of the event. A special "thank you" goes to Thierry Nivaggioli and Marty Hodgett, who chaired this year's wine auction, and their wives Belinda Tsao-Nivaggioli, and Sabrina Hodgett. Also, a big "thank you" to Patricia Colin and the committee members who worked so hard to create this lovely event, and to Chef Lou of the Sharon Heights Golf and Country Club for his wonderful cooking. If you didn't get the chance to attend, we hope you'll join us next year!
