History will unfold itself before me. I'm a lover of wine and I still can't believe that I'll be going to the first ever wine auction in the Philippines! March 24, 2011 marks a special date to the oenophiles, wine drinkers and collectors here in the Philippines because this is going to be their first time to see imported wines being auctioned off here.
Forth & Tay, a direct merchant of fine wines and spirits, and Salcedo Auctions, the country's premier auction house are the organizers of the first ever "Wines and Spirits Auction" to be held at the Mandarin Oriental at 7pm. Part of the auction's proceeds will be going to Virlanie Foundation.
James Du Vivier, GM of Forth&Tay
