Programs

CHIGAGO, IL – On Sunday, January 26th,
2014 from 2 to 6 p.m., Catholic
Charities of the Archdiocese of Chicago hosts the 13th Annual d’Vine
Affair, a premier wine tasting event held at the Union League Club of Chicago! Benefiting
Catholic Charities self-sufficiency

Expecting more than 500 attendees, the annual event
is hosted by Monsignor Michael M. Boland, President of Catholic Charities,
along with event founders Joseph and Helen Glunz of Louis Glunz Wines, Inc. and
co-chairs John and Teddi Scholz.

Boasting 250 different wines from around the

which will be poured by the vintners themselves, along with gourmet hors
d’oeuvres and desserts. From 1:30 to 2:30 p.m., wine-appreciation seminars will be
conducted by sommeliers Patrick W. Fegan and Bob Bansberg, where guests can ask
questions, take notes and learn more about their favorite varieties!

The silent auction will showcase an amazing
array of wine and other items, plus a raffle drawing will give guests a chance
to stock up their own wine cellar! All proceeds from the event will go towards
benefitting the self-sufficiency programs. Last year’s event raised more than
$103,000 for Catholic Charities
Self-Sufficiency Programs.

The Union League Club of Chicago is located at 65
W. Jackson. Tickets are $125, with an additional $80 for the 3-Course Dinner.
