Gualala Arts 33rd Annual Wine Tasting & Auction

Presented by Gualala Arts at Gualala Arts Center

The Wine Tasting & Auction will be hosted at the Gualala Arts Center, an architectural gem nestled in the redwoods with a dramatic auditorium and foyer where the tasting and silent auction is held. This is the premier wine event on the Sonoma / Mendocino coast, featuring 20 award winning wineries pouring a wide selection of their premium wines. Over 100 wine related auction lots will be available for your silent bidding both days of the event.

Participating wines include Carol Shelton Wines, Flowers Vineyards & Winery, Frey Vineyards, Handley Cellars, Husch Vineyards, Wild Hog Vineyards, Woodenhead, Korbel Champagne Cellars, Red Car Winery, Gustafson Family Vineyard, Scharffenberger, Fort Ross Winery, Parducci, and Lazy Creek Vineyards, and more.

Admission to the Korbel Champagne Reception, Friday, May 12, 5 pm to 7 pm, is free and gives individuals a chance to not only taste fine Korbel champagnes, but to preview wine auction lots and place starting bids for the silent auction.  The latest exhibits will be on display, “Bodies of Work” featuring Sonoma artists Carolyne Singer and Sieglinde Fels and “Deep Time  An Art Odyssey” presented by artist Gretchen Butler, also of Sonoma.

Woodenhead Wine is a Platinum Sponsor, donating  over $1,500 worth of wine for this event.

Vacasa has donated a weekend stay at its premier 3-bedroom Sea Ranch vacation home “Bright Star” as the top raffle prize for this year’s event.  Vacasa maintains and services private vacation homes  in 14 states and four countries and plans expansion in the U.S. and abroad.

Artist Sandy Ostrau is again donating one of her paintings as a raffle item.  In her oil paintings, Sandy says, “In my work I strive to take a scene, a person or a landscape and condense it into a very direct and simplified statement. My goal is to strip away all of the superfluous detail and present each scenario in its essence. I try to reach a point where details are not important, and specifics don’t matter.”
