Just when you thought every kind of food and drink fundraiser had already been done, the Nashville Wine Auction came up with a really fun event offering wine lovers a peek behind the curtain into the world of the experts. The Somm Showdown featured experts who had to apply to compete in three challenges to determine who was the master of merlot and the champion of chardonnay. Guests got to taste along through food pairings and blind tastings, and also watch the somms compete in a Jeopardy-style wine theory quiz. It was delicious fun, and it will return this November.
