These fine wines will be perfectly matched to the culinary delights from some of San Diego’s finest restaurants, including Truluck’s, Pamplemousse Grille, The Grand Del Mar, Union Kitchen, Red Tracton’s and Manhattan of La Jolla. A lavish selection of desserts, sure to satisfy even the most discriminating sweet tooth, will add the finishing touch on an evening of fine food and wine.
Peter Sprague, jazz guitarist, composer, and producer, will provide lively entertainment during the event. Sprague has played with such national musicians as Chick Corea and Sergio Mendes and has many of his own recordings.

"Wine D'Vine has been our premier fund raising event for the past eight years,” said Walden Family Services executive director Teresa Stivers. "Walden provides foster and adoptive homes to many children including those with developmental disabilities and special health care needs and prepares and supports youth to successfully transition from foster care to adulthood. The money raised at this event can ensure we deliver on this.”
