Special wine night fundraiser

Dear fans and wine lovers. We are holding a special wine night fundraiser next week. There is limited space available so if you wish to join us, kindly to let me know but don't wait too long... you might find out that the event attendance list is complete.
For more information, click on the picture below:


The wine haves been selected and the choices of snacks that best compliment the wines are being researched as I write this.


Special Wine Night recap:
It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words. Below you will find nine pictures I took Thursday night, but trust me when I tell you that not even combined do they begin to convey how cozy the wine cellar at The Triangle is.

On Thursday we hosted a special Wine & Cheese fundraiser and we all, without any exception were blown away by the location. Of course, our wine connoisseur Paul Jonkers made for an unforgettable night explaining in details and with many anecdotes the different whites and reds. He even managed to open our eyes to the world of olive oils.

Hidden by the passage of time, the "all original" wine cellar at The Triangle was only discovered during reconstruction of the site a few years ago. Once down the steps the ambience quickly turns from modern to old as you seem magically transported to an old European chateau or an underground room of the officers club in the movie "Lawrence of Arabia".

Below the pictures, which I admit are a poor representation of the setup of the event's location:






Needless to say, the fundraiser was a success. Thank you!
Here follows some of the guest's remarks about our special wine night:

"Let's keep this for ourselves"

"This location must be one of Curacao's best kept secrets"

But don't worry. In due time we will organize another special wine night, but rather than going around the world, we will concentrate on one country.

Thanks for reading and see you at the races!
