Haute Event: Clos du Bois Honors the City’s Most Charitable Women
by Wael Alexander Davis

On Monday, May 9 on the Upper East Side, Clos du Bois hosted a lunch for New York City’s most philanthropic women and toasted their charitable efforts.
After the ladies mingled, nibbled on appetizers including chicken summer rolls and salmon bites, sipped on Clos du Bois Chardonnay and perused through Paola Quadretti’s beautiful and bright designs, they lunched on cobb salad and petit fours while sampling more Clos du Bois varietals including the Late Harvest Riesling. Bright pink peonies adorned the room on the spring day.
Each of the guests shared information on their philanthropic work and charities close to their heart, encouraging each other to get involved. There were over 20 charities represented including God’s Love We Deliver, New Yorkers for Children, Alzheimer’s Association, Memorial Sloan Kettering, Central Park Conservancy, New York Botanical Garden, Lincoln Center Institute, Save Venice, Hale House, The Frick, Joyce Theater and many more.
Clos du Bois is looking forward to supporting these various charities through events and sponsorships.
