Nashville’s Best Cellars Dinner Chair and Chairman of the Board of Trustees John Esposito kicked off the event, welcoming the room with a toast. Also in attendance were other Trustees, Steve Gawley of Universal Music Group, Greg Thompson of Big Loud Records and Scott Borchetta of Big Machine Label Group. Guests were treated to a luxurious gourmet dinner prepared by chef Dean Fearing, which was expertly paired with prestigious Grand Crus and exceptional, rare wines.

An auction was held at the dinner, featuring a lavish array of items and experiences such as a private jet experience, Best Cellars wine collection, a Pappy Van Winkle whiskey package, a “Grand Cru” private dinner and more. The proceeds from the event, which was sponsored by Secure Air Charter, contribute to the T.J.
