AMBASSADORS

Honorary Wine Ambassadors

Each year, The Classic Wines Auction selects four Honorary Wine Ambassadors to showcase at the Auction. These Wine Ambassadors represent some of the most esteemed wine growing regions in the world and are world renowned for their premium wine labels and vintages. The wines of our Honorary Wine Ambassadors are featured at the Ambassadors Dinner and the Classic Wines Auction each year. Additionally, each Ambassador sponsors a one-of-a-kind experience specific to their respective winery and region to be presented in the Live Auction at the Classic Wines Auction event.

​

The 2019 Honorary Wine Ambassadors are: Cristom Vineyards (OR), 00 Wines (OR), Doubleback Winery (WA), Woodward Canyon Winery (WA), Rombauer Vineyards (CA), Silver Oak Cellars (CA), Becky Wasserman & Co. (France), and Domaines Ott (France).
