BookCliff Vineyards supports PBS

Join BookCliff in participating with the 2012 Rocky Mountain PBS online auction. BookCliff donated a dinner for two of our Local Chefs Food and Wine Pairing in the spring of 2013. Choose any one dinner of the series from January through April. I think it is great fun to bid on the items during the online auction and it can hardly be easier. You can buy Christmas gifts, expand your horizon and visit remote areas you have never been at or treat yourself to something fun. And all this for a good cause, great programing from educational to entertaining. I am looking forward to season 3 for Downton Abbey.
