Rich Seal, owner of The Wine List and a “Champion” of the UC Brain Tumor Center, is chairing the center’s second annual fundraiser: a wine tasting event scheduled for 6 to 8:30 p.m. Thursday, April 28, at the CARE/Crawley Building on the UC Academic Health Center Campus at the corner of Eden Ave. & Albert Sabin Way.
The UC Brain Tumor Center is a multidisciplinary center dedicated to state-of-the-art clinical care and research excellence within the University of Cincinnati Neuroscience Institute (UCNI).
“The event will feature tastings of high-quality wines from around the United States and the world as well as a silent auction of excellent, hard-to-find wines,” says Mr. Seal, a member of the Brain Tumor Center's Community Advisory Board. Savory and healthful hors d’oeuvres will be served by Jeff Thomas Catering, and valet parking will be available. Tickets are $50.
Event sponsors are The Wine List, Tramonte & Sons, Vintage Wine Distributors, Inc., 55 Degrees, Glazer's Distributors, and The Grand Cru Wine Company. The event will feature a silent auction and the opportunity for guests to purchase tasting wines, which can be delivered or picked up at a later date.
