“For 25 years, the team of the New York International Wine Auction has worked hard and professionally to host Up-State NY's foremost Wine Event. Our guests are spoiled every year with a gourmet five course dinner, accompanied by world class Cuvées. The team takes great pride in diligently matching the five dinner courses with demanding, sometimes unusual but sophisticated wines. The Auction itself has reached a quality level and standard, that rivals national and international auctions with much longer heritage. NYIWA set out as a charity event, and has succeeded to increase the funds for a good cause every year since its inception. I'll drink to that!”
