The Lyric Opera of Chicago provides different ways for opera lovers to support their efforts. Two upcoming ways to support the Lyric Opera is through purchasing a magnum of SONG™ and participating in Wine Auction 2015.

SONG™

Wine and opera enthusiasts will want to check out the release of SONG™ produced by HALL Wines in Napa Valley.  SONG™ is a limited release of 100 etched magnums. The wine is a blend of fruit from the Sacrashe and Bergfeld vineyards at Hall Wines. According to a press release, the wine is described as “Rich in dark berry and cassis flavors and born on an opulent structure.” It is suggested that the wine will age gracefully for 15-20 years.

Kathryn Hall, owner of Hall Wines, noted, “This wonderful collaboration with Lyric Opera of Chicago offered us the opportunity to give a new voice to our vineyards. It has allowed us to combine our passions for winemaking and the arts to produce a wine that truly awakens the senses.”

SONG™ will become available January 7. Each magnum of SONG™  will sell for $1,000.

The Wine Auction 2015  is scheduled to take place at the Ardis Krainik Theatre. The live auction will include a one 6-litre bottle of SONG™.
