Tobacco Road Cellars Participates in Charlotte Heart Ball
Charlotte, NC, January 29, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Tobacco Road Cellars (TRC) will donate an exclusive in-home wine tasting to the fundraising auction for the 51st Annual Greater Charlotte Heart Ball. The boutique California winery will donate a private in-home wine tasting conducted by label owners Dusty Field and Jason Earnest. Auction attendees will be able to bid in the silent auction for a chance to host up to 30 of their friends for the tasting. TRC will handle all of the planning, logistics and set-ups while providing a fun but enlightening experience, centered around California wine.
“The American Heart Association plays an important role in advocating good heart health and we want to do our part to help raise the necessary funds to do so – especially in tough financial times such as these,” said Jason Earnest, label co-founder.
Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death in North Carolina and the consumption of red wine in moderation has been linked to good heart health. TRC plans to donate similar tastings this year to other heart balls throughout North Carolina in an effort to help raise funds for heart health advocacy statewide.
