FROM OUR PRESIDENT

2025 DESTIN CHARITY WINE AUCTION

PRESIDENT

KARAH FRIDLEY-YOUNG Dear Patrons, It is with great excitement and heartfelt gratitude that we welcome you to the 20th Annual Destin Charity Wine Auction! Over the years, this extraordinary event has grown into one of the most anticipated gatherings in our community, uniting wine enthusiasts, philanthropists, and friends in support of a shared purpose.

This year marks a significant milestone, and we are thrilled to celebrate two decades of generosity and impact with all of you, while honoring our founders.

Thanks to your unwavering support and the dedication of our sponsors, winemakers, patron dinner hosts, and donors, the Destin Charity Wine Auction has raised over $35 million to benefit children across Northwest Florida. Together, we’ve created opportunities, provided resources, and changed countless lives.

As we raise our glasses over the weekend, let us celebrate not only the fine wines and exquisite cuisine that bring us together but also the power of giving. Every bid you place and every toast you make serves as a reminder of the positive change we can achieve when we come together as a community.

We hope you enjoy the vibrant atmosphere, the extraordinary auction lots, and the camaraderie of being among friends old and new. May this 20th anniversary be a memorable occasion filled with joy, generosity, and inspiration.

From all of us at Destin Charity Wine Auction Foundation, thank you for your incredible support. Let’s make this year’s auction one to remember!

FROM OUR FOUNDER

DESTIN CHARITY WINE AUCTION FOUNDATION

FOUNDER

CHAN COX Dear Patrons, On behalf of the founders of the Destin Charity Wine Auction Foundation, welcome to the 20th annual live auction. I want to recognize and applaud the 2005 founding board members for their vision, commitment, passion, organizational skills, and—above all— their generosity. When asked to join this cause, not one questioned, “How much will it cost?” or “How much of my time will it take?” The result? Over the past 19 years, we have raised an incredible $35 million to support children in need and save lives.

Our partner charities are deeply grateful to you—our patrons—who, by raising your paddles, are directly transforming lives in our local communities. You make this possible.

We also extend our heartfelt appreciation to the wineries and their teams for their generosity, time, and financial commitment. As you visit your favorite wine shop, we encourage you to remember and support those who help make this event a success.

So, please join me in raising a glass as we celebrate this incredible journey and look forward to many more years of making a difference together.

Cheers, Chan Cox

24 Blazing the Bourbon Trail This Lot Benefits: Westonwood Ranch They say necessity is the mother of invention, and Bourbon is no exception.

Established in 1785, Bourbon County is one of Kentucky’s oldest counties. As an early hub of whiskey trade, farmers shipped whiskey in oak barrels stamped from Bourbon County down the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers, all the way to New Orleans. The long trip aged the whiskey, while the oak wood lent it a distinct mellow flavor and amber color.

As whiskey from Bourbon County grew in popularity, the liquor became known simply as “Bourbon.”

For those who thirst for new experiences, let us immerse you in Louisville’s bourbon culture. Two couples will board a private Citation jet for three nights of immersion on the Bourbon Trail. Stay in refined luxury at downtown Louisville’s Hotel Distil, located on the famed Whiskey Row. At Hotel Distil, you will step into a modern space through a historic façade, where gracious service and modern amenities flow like the Bourbon once barreled at the historic site.

Every detail of your journey has been planned for you by your private tour guide. Enjoy two full days of private tours and hands-on tasting experiences at Stitzel-Weller, Jim Beam, Maker’s Mark, and more with a stop in Bardstown one day for lunch.

30 The Noble Terroir of Promontory and Bond The Harlan family had a plan to create a California equivalent of a Bordeaux first growth, producing a wine that would command global praise. With perfectly situated vineyards, exceptional terroir, and the talents of Harlan’s tenured team, these wines have undoubtedly earned their cult wine status. They possess all the elements of greatness - individuality, power combined with elegance, extraordinary complexity, remarkable aging potential, and compelling richness without ponderousness.

Four guests are invited to Napa for a once-in-a-lifetime wine country experience featuring the wines of Promontory and BOND that redefines the meaning of exclusivity. Begin with a private visit to Promontory led by winemaker David Cilli.

Situated among the western hills of Oakville, overlooking the Napa Valley, wines from the hillsides of Promontory reflect the many aspects of the territory: the native forests, the moisture of the ephemeral fog, and the minerality of the geological underpinnings.

When combined, these disparate facets provide a natural balance of freshness, energy, and tannin.

Rest and recharge in luxury at the recently reopened Meadowood Napa Valley. At once wild and refined, pristine and sophisticated, with elegant amenities that recall the civilized simplicity of earlier times, the estate unfolds from the ridges of its surrounding mountains through wooded canyons and rows of vineyards to the Napa River’s edge. This tranquil sanctuary epitomizes the essence of the Napa resort and spa experience, offering a harmonious blend of luxury, relaxation, and rejuvenation amidst breathtaking natural beauty.

Enjoy lunch at FORUM before arriving at BOND where Master Sommelier and estate director Max Kast awaits to guide you through a tasting of rare, highly rated wines. Sourced from select hillside estates, the Cabernet Sauvignon wines of BOND vividly demonstrate the range of Napa Valley’s finest terroirs. Private visits at both Promontory and BOND are extraordinarily difficult to secure and not available to the general public. End your day at with dinner at The Charter Oak. Located in the heart of Napa Valley and created by Chef Christopher Kostow of the Michelin three-starred The Restaurant at Meadowood, The Charter Oak is centered on a celebratory, family-stye dining experience with simple, approachable, and seasonal culinary delights.

Graham’s 1985 Magnum Legacy

Vintage Port is crafted only in the finest years, making it one of the rarest and most prestigious styles of wine.

Bursting with flavors of black cherry, plum, and spice, it is perfectly balanced by velvety tannins and a long, elegant finish.

What makes this offering even more special is the magnum format.
