Ridge Top Tasting Fundraiser

We invite you to enjoy 5 curated amuse-bouche pairings to raise money for the Kituwah Equestrian Youth Program (KEYP).  Join us at a beautiful outdoor private venue in central Franklin NC that offers a panoramic view of the surrounding pastoral valleys.  Private Property Address will be revealed at Ticket Purchase via email. 

- Your ticket purchase is your donation to KEP.  THANK YOU FOR THE LOVE AND SUPPORT! 

Tickets are non-refundable. 

We will greet you with a glass of sparkling as you wait for everyone to arrive.  Seating is first come first serve.  Parking assistance and shuttle is provided up the steep gravel driveway.  At 6:15 we will begin the course pairings (small servings to enhance the wines). You will be guided through each course by the knowlegable previous owner of Secret Wine Company in Waynesville, Mr. Tony Gaddis.  You will recieve a FREE ticket for the Wine BOTTLE Pull Drawing that gives you four chances to win a surprise bottle!  Donations accepted for additional food and beverage while supplies last. Come enjoy the early autumn views, make new friends, and most importantly, help lift off an At-Risk Youth Equestrian Program in Far Western North Carolina. FOOD ALLERGIES?
