On Thursday, May 2nd, 1,250-plus attendees filled the Tork Club at Lincoln Financial Field to enjoy more than 500 premium–rated wines from 13 countries at Philadelphia magazine’s Wine Festival presented by Lexus. The event featured top red, white and bubbly varietals along with food samples from more than 20 Philadelphia restaurants. Celebrity winemakers Fergie and Jesse Bongiovi were onsite for a meet-and-greet and bottle signing.

Five Lexus vehicles were on display, and Lexus VIP guests received a custom leather tote. Barilla provided guests with samples of their new sauces, and Coastal Sunbelt Produce provided produce for many of the restaurants‘ dishes and directly to guests. After sampling food and wine, guests headed over to the TerraVida photo booth to capture the fun.

This year’s beneficiary was the American Heart Association, a voluntary organization dedicated to fighting heart disease and stroke with more than 33 million volunteers and supporters. Guests bid on raffle items including a personal in–home demo with Chef Delilah Winder, who was at the event serving up her signature heart–healthy dishes.
