On May 18th, Eno Wines and Harrington Wine participated in a fundraiser at the CheeseBar in Berkeley's Gourmet Ghetto. The event included local California cheeses, homemade dessert, and live music from Brazilian guitarist Benito Taylor. All proceeds were donated to help support AIDS Lifecycle Ride.

Cheeses that were served:

  • Redwood Hill Farm Crottin (goat)
  • Cypress Grove Mt. McKinley (goat)
  • Cowgirl Creamery Mt. Tam (cow)
  • Matos Farm St. George (raw cow)- very good
