Harvest: Wine Auction and Celebration
Harvest: Wine Auction and Celebration of Long Island’s East End was held at the water’s edge on the beautiful Ludlow Farm in Bridgehampton last Saturday. Attendees included organizer Roman Roth and his lovely wife Dushi, Mets Star Keith Hernandez, Comtesse Therese Winemaker and Owner Tree Dilworth, Cheesemakers Art and Stacy Ludlow, Assemblyman Fred Thiele, Sherwood House Proprietor Barbara Smithen and featured artful vintage décor by John Mazur.
The auction raised $31,000, 100% of which will go to the three HARVEST beneficiaries: East End Hospice, Group for the East End and the Peconic Land Trust. Charles Antin, Associate Vice President and Wine Specialist at Christie’s, presided over the auction, the only auction of exclusively Long Island wine.
