Our Story

When the Manhattan Wine Auction was first introduced in 1995, the concept was simple – to bring the community together, raise money for our schools, and have fun doing it. Today, the Manhattan Wine Auction is the largest charity wine auction in Southern California that brings together nearly 2,200 guests to sample the best in food and wine. Even the artwork has become iconic – each year, the highly anticipated invitation captures the excitement of the event and wine in an imaginative way.
