			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This past June 24th I was part of organizing a charity wine auction so, of course, I choose to pick to have only Ontario wines. There were six Ontario wineries each pouring two wines. The most popular wines being a <a href="http://www.danaykroydwines.com/Our-Wines/1#bottle=1">Sauviogon Blanc</a> from <a href="http://www.danaykroydwines.com">Dan Akyord Wines</a> and<a href="http://www.bringmywine.ca/prince_edward_county_wine.html"> Prince Edward County&#8217;s</a> <a href="http://www.blackprincewinery.com">Black Prince&#8217;s</a> <a href="http://www.blackprincewinery.com/index.php?id=15">Chardonnay</a>.</p>
<p>This charity wine event supports the <a href="http://www.fredvictor.org">Fred Victor Centre</a> and held its second annual tasting event at the <a href="http://www.libertygroup.com/c_lounge/c_lounge.html">C-Lounge</a>. The venue was fantastic because it was a beautiful day and people could really take advantage of their larget outside space. Having a warm sunny day &#8216;might&#8217; have affected the most popular wines&#8230;because I was surprised that two white wines were the most popular.</p>
<p>Here is a list of the wineries and wines that were poured:</p>
<p>(1) Black Prince</p>
<p>(2) <a href="http://www.laileyvineyard.com">Lailey Vineyard</a></p>
<p>(3) <a href="http://www.strewnwinery.com">Strewn Winery</a></p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-86" title="dscn0056" src="http://www.bringmywine.ca/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/dscn0056-300x224.jpg" alt="dscn0056" width="300" height="224" /></p>
<p>Justyn (of WineryToHome.com) and Nathan Arnold (amatuer wine maker who works at Yahoo!)</p>
<p>(4) Dan Akyrod</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-84" title="dscn0054" src="http://www.bringmywine.ca/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/dscn0054-300x225.jpg" alt="dscn0054" width="300" height="225" /></p>
<p>(5) <a href="http://www.gretzky.com/wine/estates.php">Wayne Gretzky Winery</a></p>
<p>(same table as Creekside)</p>
<p>(6) <a href="http://www.creeksidewine.com">Creekside Estate Winery</a></p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-85" title="dscn0055" src="http://www.bringmywine.ca/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/dscn0055-300x224.jpg" alt="dscn0055" width="300" height="224" /></p>
<p>The huge table of cheese was provided by the Leslieville Cheese Shop and they had a TON of cheese.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-88" title="dscn0057" src="http://www.bringmywine.ca/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/dscn00571-300x224.jpg" alt="dscn0057" width="300" height="224" /></p>
<p>This now yearly charity event raises money for the Fred Victor Centre&#8217;s Art program. This program used art to help people recover from many different problems (addiction, personal thearpy, etc) and is a great &#8216;out of the box&#8217; way for an organization whose end goal is to help&#8230;regardless of the method.</p>
<p>Next year, we will be inviting back four of the six wineries and adding two more new Ontario wineries. Do you have any suggestions? Lets us know who we should have pouring for our event next year.</p>
