Wow! The 2007 event, held Jan. 26-28, raised $18.3 million for various children's causes here in Naples. That's a new record for the Wine Festival, and it's also one of the largest fundraising events on earth.
March 2oth* there will be an invitation-only awards ceremony held for the organizations chosen to benefit from this largess, held at the Ritz-Carlton.
Next year's event will be held January 25-27 - yes, ending on Ted Coine's birthday. Tickets aren't cheap, so start budgeting!
