Fundraiser Honoring Meg & Bob Nibbi, September 10, 2022, Silverado Resort & Spa, Napa, CA
(San Francisco, CA, August 10, 2022) – Family House San Francisco announces its 26th Annual Cabernet for Connoisseurs at Silverado Resort & Spa in Napa, CA on Saturday September 10, 2022. Founded in 1981, Family House San Francisco serves as a home away from home for families of children with cancer and other life-threatening illnesses by providing physical comfort, care, and compassion, free from financial concerns. Located in San Francisco’s Mission Bay neighborhood, two blocks from the Chase Center, Family House San Francisco has been deeply impacted by COVID-19 and this event will provide much needed funds to continue operating and housing up to 80 families a night.
Cabernet for Connoisseurs brings together two of the greatest features of the Bay Area: Wine and Philanthropy, raising more than $14 million for Family House San Francisco including a record breaking $2.1 million in 2021. This year’s event will honor Meg and Bob Nibbi for their longtime support of the organization.
A Live Auction highlight is “Party like a Warrior! …Own a Piece of History!” Wine and dine at the half-court line. How about those Warriors? And how about a chance to see them up-close and personal from the comfort of some of the best seats in the arena? First, your party of 12 will enjoy a pre-game feast with specially selected wines, hosted by Warriors majority owners Joe and Nicole Lacob in their stunning personal suite at the Chase Center in San Francisco. Then you’ll step out into the arena to watch the game from the comfort of their 12 courtside lounge seats (located just a couple of rows directly behind the players!). And to take this once-in-a-lifetime celebration over the top, this lot also includes a rare magnum of Domaine Curry’s highly rated 2019 “Four Rings” Blend Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. This limited edition of only twenty 1.5-liter magnum bottles was created to commemorate the Warriors’ fourth NBA championship for Stephen Curry, select NBA players, dignitaries including President Barack Obama, and one very lucky nonprofit: Family House! The hand-etched and hand-painted bottle is signed by Stephen Curry, who wrote the inspirational text on the back label. This unique bottle is a highly collectible piece of art and history. Not available for public sale, it’s truly priceless. The balls in your hands now, so take your shot! (This lot is valid for a mutually agreed upon date for a regular season home game in the 22-23 season.) Donated by: Joe & Nicole Lacob, John Schwartz, Domaine Curry Winery.
