The Armenian Bone Marrow Donor Registry (ABMDR) will hold its fifth annual wine-tasting on June 20. One of the organization’s most anticipated community events, the wine-tasting is once again sponsored by Mr. and Mrs. Vicken and Salpi Mankerian of Mission Wine and Spirits, and will be hosted by the Mankerians at their residence in Sierra Madre, California.

Guests will enjoy a wide variety of fine vintages and varietals, with wine stewards from over 30 wineries pouring more than 100 brands. The wines will be paired with sumptuous hors d’oeuvres, passed around across the three terraces of the beautiful property. The event, which starts at 7:30 pm, will also feature DJ music.

“Offering a magical evening of wonderful wines, food, music, and the opportunity to mingle with old and new friends, the ABMDR wine-tasting is one of our most popular events, drawing wine aficionados and supporters from throughout Los Angeles,” said Dr. Frieda Jordan, president of ABMDR. “I thank Mr. and Mrs. Vicken and Salpi Mankerian for graciously hosting the event, and encourage everyone to join us on June 20 for an unforgettable evening that will benefit our life-saving mission.”

Tickets to the wine-tasting event are priced at $75 per person and reservations are recommended. To RSVP, please call Salpi at (626) 355-3789 or Robert at (626) 794-7026, or email robert@missionwineandspirits.com.
