Washington Life was among many prestigious guests at the final night of three days worth of  Heart’s Delight events that netted $1 million dollars for the American Heart Association. The events took place over three days in May.  On Thursday, various wine dinners took place with a hint of internationalism, each dinner having a host, chef, and winemaker. Friday was Vintners Dinner at the Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium, which was immediately followed by a live auction. Lastly, if these activities were not enough, there was Saturday’s virtual tour of Bordeaux which entailed exciting seminars, live and silent auctions, and more!
