2 AUCTION FOR OUR FUTURE The Institute of Masters of Wine is a membership organisation with an unsurpassed reputation. Our Members, the Masters of Wine, hold the most respected title in the world of wine. Through our Members and activities, we promote excellence, education and interaction across the global wine community. We currently have 369 Masters of Wine from all corners of the world, working in all aspects of the wine trade. We also have over 320 students from 40 countries in the MW Study Programme. As the Institute continues to grow and flourish, we need to raise a considerable sum for our Endowment Fund. This will help provide support to our international students, allow us to increase our reach to Members, extend our range of activities in the global wine world and encourage the Masters of Wine of the future. To help us reach our goals, join us at an unforgettable evening. On 16 November 2017 the Institute will hold a once-in-a-lifetime auction and dinner. Led by Richard Harvey MW, Patrick McGrath MW and Fiona Morrison MW and hosted by international auction house Bonhams, the evening will enable invited guests to bid for an amazing array of Super Lots. Successful bidders of the Super Lots will gain unprecedented access to the great estates and winemakers of the world, and taste and own wines with impeccable provenance.
