Ancona's invites you to bid on choice bourbon, for a cause

Ancona's Annouces Bourbon For A Cause

Mitch Ancona, the owner of Ancona's Wines & Liquors has decided to auction off a few of the store's more "precious" offerings in order to raise money for, Ann's Place, the Danbury-based nonprofit that provides comfort, support, and resources to those with cancer as well as their loved ones.

Big on Bourbon

Here's how it's going to work. The items will have a "original price" and a "current bid".

The "original price" represents what we (Ancona's Wines) will charge. The difference between the "original price" and the "winning bid" will go to charity.  (I've based the pricing off of the current market pricing for these items as shown on wine searcher.) You will have the option to write a check directly to the charity when you purchase and pick up your bottle (there is also an option to pay via CC on the charity's website) or we will make the donation on your behalf. All bids will be made via email directly to me mitch_ancona@anconaswine.com.

I will confirm via email that I have received your bid. I will update the "current bid" price online as they come in. Bid increments will be set at a minimum of $100. You can bid as often as you'd like. 

The complete list is here... refer to this list to check on the current high bids as the auction progresses.

The end date/time for the auction is noon (ET), December 22nd. Bidding timing will be based on email timestamp. I will email the winning bidders December 22nd. Email me directly if you have questions, comments or concerns.

Donations will go to Ann's Place: Providing Comfort, Support, And Resources To People Living With Cancer And Their Loved Ones ...learn more about what they do here
