Don’t miss your last chance to join the CHEST Foundation for a celebration of excellent initiatives – and equally excellent wines – at the last Viva La Vino event of 2022, happening on December 1 at 7 pm.

This event will focus on white and red varietals from Piedmont, a region of Northwest Italy. The Piedmont area is known for producing more wines classified as Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita, the highest classification of quality for wines in Italy, than any other region.
Join CHEST CEO Bob Musacchio, PhD, as he guides attendees through a virtual and interactive exploration of the history, varietals, and techniques of Piedmont wines. Plus, hear from other CHEST leaders and friends of the Foundation about the important work currently being done and the evolution of the Foundation’s many initiatives since its inception.
With their ticket, attendees will receive one bottle of white wine and two bottles of red wine – including Paitin Starda Langhe Nebbiolo 2019, Michele Chiarlo Le Madri Roero Arneis 2020, and Massolino Barbera d’Alba 2019 – as well as an Italian-themed snack kit featuring cheese, salami, taralli, and other tasty treats, to complement their imbibes.
Funds raised from Viva La Vino benefit the Harold Amos Medical Faculty Development Program (AMFDP) and CHEST initiatives to improve patient care. The AMFDP offers 4-year postdoctoral research awards to physicians, dentists, and nurses from historically marginalized backgrounds.
