A Gallop Across the Globe
A Wine Tasting to Benefit the Willow Fund for Retired Lesson Horses
Tuesday September 28
7:30 pm - 8:30 pm

$20 (plus tax)

Join us for a fantastic tasting of various wines from around the world to support a great cause. The Willow Fund and Thistle Ridge Farm have been saving lesson horses, like Bambi, Blossom and Quasar (pictured) and giving them a lovely retirement for more than 15 years. All three worked as lesson horses here in NYC at Claremont Riding Academy and are now living happily at Thistle Ridge in Oxford, Mississippi. These are just a few of the horses retired there.

At this event we will be tasting reds, whites, and bubblies from all over the globe. Ever wanted to try a wine from New York State? How about South Africa? Now is your chance to get to try a large variety of wines from various places and compare flavors, textures, and aromas and give back to these amazing animals at the same time.

A portion of the ticket price and sales from this event will be donated to Thistle Ridge Farm to help support the daily needs as well as medical needs of these great Willow Fund Horses.

Each participant will receive a beautiful Riedel crystal stem from which to taste and take home at the end of the evening.

*Payments cover the cost of Riedel glassware and printed materials.
