Auction of Washington Wines is donating $278,000 for the future of the wine industry.

 

 

The donation goes to WSU’s viticulture and enology research programs and is the largest single-donor contribution to the school’s V&E program.

 

Auction of Washington Wines has supported the school for 11 years contributing nearly $2.5 million.

 

WSU Associate Dean of Research James Moyer said, “The Auction of Washington Wines provides WSU much needed support for research that provides the foundation for the future of the Washington State Wine industry.”

 

The 2017 auction will take place August 17th-19th. For more information visit auctionofwashingtonwines.org.
