Destin Charity Wine Auction presented by the Jumonville Family
We're turning 21 and going wild for kids!
The sell-out weekend kicks off with Patron Dinners hosted in private homes and restaurants along the Emerald Coast. Each of the dinners supports one of DCWAF's benefiting charities. The Destin Charity Wine Auction is the main event of the weekend, hosted this year on Saturday, April 25. The Reserve Tasting and Live Auction are held under an air conditioned tent at Grand Boulevard Sandestin Town Center. The event will feature distinctive wines from internationally acclaimed vintners, poured and paired with cuisine created by a selection of the area’s top local restaurants.
The Reserve Tasting is accompanied by a silent auction with some super silent offerings featuring wine, autographed large format bottles, art, and more. The event culminates with a high-energy live auction, which includes rare and distinctive wines, spectacular trips, and other incredible one-of-a-kind items. The Destin Charity Auction is hosted each year in conjunction with the South Walton Beaches Wine and Food Festival, which also takes place in Grand Boulevard Sandestin Town Center the same weekend.
