Three Blind Vines

Check in begins at 6:00 p.m. and will go until 7:00 p.m. at which time no more wine will be accepted. Teams of 1-3 people will bring three bottles of their favorite French wines: one red, one white, and a third bottle of one of the two. The first two bottles will be collected, disguised, and set out for tasting and voting. The third bottle is set aside unopened to be given to two Grand Prize winners.

From 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. tasting and voting takes place. Grab a few different bottles and take them back to your table. Taste and make notes on the space provided in your program and then pass the bottles along to the next table so everyone has a chance to enjoy!

A silent auction takes place from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. and the bid winners are announced at 9:00 p.m. along with the two Grand Prize winners each splitting the vault of all of the unopened third bottles. Second and third place winners will also receive a prize to be announced at the event!

Over 500 people attended the 4rd annual Three Blind Vines event held at Jamison Hall on Friday, Feb. 25 hosted by the Next Generation Heritage Foundation. The event raised just over $20,000 towards saving the Franklin Theatre and support came from attendees from Alabama, Virginia, Kentucky, Fairview, Thompson’s Station, Franklin, Brentwood, Murfreesboro and Nashville. The theme of ‘1920s Speakeasy’ drew a crowd of creatively dressed guests, and everyone in attendance tasted a variety of Malbecs and Sauvignon Blancs.
