The flow of a wine auction (2 examples)

Last month I worked as a wine auctioneer for a benefit auction in Oak Brook, IL. It was my second wine auction in 2017.  The other event was for a nonprofit in Texas.  In this post, I'm featuring both of them. If you're running a wine auction or considering launching one in your community, take a look at how these two fundraisers are structured.  Both of these are successful events in their markets.  Let's look at highlights from each event.

Three ways a Los Angeles auction incorporated high-end wines

Welcome to wine week! Every post this week ties to alcohol. Here's the post explaining why. A few benefit auctions I conduct each year aren't known as wine auctions, but they have such a stellar collection of wine available that the lots could easily be sold in a wine auction and fit right in.

Where does a wine auctioneer learn about champagne?

Welcome to wine week! Every post this week ties to alcohol. Here’s the post explaining it. Where does a fundraising wine auctioneer go to learn about champagne? Drinking it often is a good start.

Jun 03 Three wine auction catalogs

[VIDEO] Comparing wine auction catalogs

Welcome to wine week! Every post this week ties to alcohol. Here's the post explaining it. In this video, I pulled three wine auction catalogs from my collection. If you've never attended a wine auction, you'll be interested to hear how different they are from most typical benefit auctions. If you happen to be chairing a wine auction, you'll enjoy seeing how your own catalog compares to other groups around the country.  Everyone has a special way of presenting their ... Read On >

This wine auctioneer is drinking moonshine

It's wine week! What is wine week? This week I've devoted every day of my blog to a wine-related post. Or something close. I'm celebrating a birthday soon so it seems proper to have a toast. In honor of the big day, every post this week will discuss something about wine or some other beverage (like moonshine) worthy of being poured into a glass and raised during a toast. This past weekend I sampled moonshine (or sweetshine, as they call it) at Bloomery Plantation in West Virginia. I spend a ... Read On >
