13th Annual Gourmet & Grapes
Join us Feb. 4, 2021, as we celebrate the first virtual and 13th Annual Gourmet & Grapes, benefiting cancer research and patient programs at Hollings Cancer Center at the Medical University of South Carolina.
A virtual tasting experience with Adelaida
Our main event is a virtual tasting experience with Adelaida Vineyards & Winery, a top winery in Paso Robles, California. Adelaida has pioneered winemaking in the Paso Robles region since it was founded in 1981. The winery’s estate includes the legendary Hoffman Mountain Ranch (HMR) Vineyard plus four other distinct vineyards in the west hills of Paso Robles: Anna’s, Bobcat Crossing, Michael’s and Viking. Adelaida farms all its vineyards sustainably and its wines have consistently won widespread acclaim from top writers and wine competitions in America. Previous Gourmet & Grapes guests awarded Adelaida the Golden Cork Award, which is presented to the best winery at the event.
Your virtual tasting experience begins with three bottles* of Adelaida wine, curated by acclaimed winemaker Jeremy Weintraub. Weintraub serves as your live host, walking you through each bottle’s characteristics and tasting notes, Adelaida’s unique winemaking process and delicious food pairings.
An assortment of specially selected cheeses, a custom Gourmet & Grapes cheese board and two exclusive Gourmet & Grapes wineglasses carefully packed in a soft cooler complete your virtual tasting experience.**

Special thanks to Danielle Cather Cohen
The 2021 Gourmet & Grapes logo featuring Adelaide wine was painted by artist Danielle Cather Cohen. Cohen, a native of New Jersey, has more than 30 years of experience as a colorist and impressionist. Cohen’s work has been in demand for years with fine art collectors all over the country. Special thanks to Cohen for contributing her talents to Gourmet & Grapes!
“Cancer, unfortunately, is a part of our lives,” Cohen said. “To be able to help in any way to eradicate it is an honor and I am grateful to be able to contribute to the cause.”
