“We are very pleased to be working with the United Sommeliers Foundation, helping give back to the sommelier community that has been so good to us over the decades that we’ve spent hosting wine events in many cities worldwide,” said Acker Chairman, John Kapon. Acker will match an additional percentage on top of the proceeds from each lot sold so that the United Sommeliers Foundation will receive more than 100% of the hammer price of each lot.
Acker will be accepting auction consignments of wine and spirits to directly benefit the USF program, which provides financial assistance to sommeliers who have been furloughed as a result of widespread restaurant closures. The United Sommeliers Foundation, a new nonprofit dedicated to providing emergency financial assistance to out-of-work wine professionals, today announces their official partnership with Acker Wines.
