Furthermore, we know that continued research will help control and eventually eradicate complications, all while continuing to help those afflicted by bringing the artificial pancreas to market. We salute and thank the Seattle Guild’s Living & Giving award recipient, Delta Air Lines for their SOARING commitment to putting an end to type 1 diabetes. We also thank our CAST OF STARS – the many Dream Gala sponsors, wine hosts, donors, evening patrons and volunteers, along with JDRF Seattle Guild members and friends. For years, this Seattle community has been a trailblazer in fundraising for diabetes. It has been an honor to be involved with such a dynamic group of people. We know this year will be no different! Please help us reach our goal of turning TYPE ONE INTO TYPE NONE. WE’RE ROLLING!

DEAR DREAM GAL A PATRONS, It is my privilege to congratulate the JDRF Seattle Guild on the special occasion of your 27th Annual Dream Gala. Tonight represents months of hard work and dedication from JDRF volunteers and staff to support diabetes research and increase awareness of the seriousness of this disease for millions of people. As someone who has lived with type 1 diabetes for nearly 40 years, I am more convinced than ever that JDRF is funding the research that will create a world without the disease. I am especially grateful to this year’s Living & Giving award recipient, Delta Air Lines, for your commitment to JDRF and our mission. I extend my sincere thanks to Gala Chairs, Lela and Harley Franco, and to all of tonight’s many guests. Your generosity of time and talent sustains the work that JDRF is able to do. As you celebrate your accomplishments, I hope you will recognize how essential you are to JDRF’s vision of changing Type One into Type None. In just the past few years, we have seen so many promising advances that improve lives today and will lead us to a cure tomorrow. Please accept my deepest thanks for your participation in the Dream Gala and your support of JDRF all year. Warm regards,

I love how wine continues to evolve, how every time I open a bottle it’s going to taste different than if I had opened it on any other day. Because a bottle of wine is actually alive— it’s constantly evolving and gaining complexity.

àMAURICE CELLARS MAGNUM FEATURING CHIHULY ARTWORK $1,000 EACH - ONLY 100 BOTTLES OF THE VERY SPECIAL, LIMITED EDITION ARE AVAILABLE

This 100% Estate Syrah features flavors of candied fennel, sage, pepper, and blackberry that persist in the mouth. The stem tannin leaves a lovely texture on the extremely long finish.

TYPE 1 DIABETES is an autoimmune disease that strikes both children and adults suddenly. It has nothing to do with diet or lifestyle. There is nothing you can do to prevent it. And, at present, there is no cure. IN T1D, YOUR PANCREAS STOPS PRODUCING INSULIN— a hormone the body needs to get energy from food. This means a process your body does naturally and automatically becomes something that now requires your daily attention and manual intervention. If you have T1D, you must constantly monitor your blood-sugar level, inject or infuse insulin through a pump, and carefully balance these insulin doses with your eating and activity throughout the day and night. HOWEVER, INSULIN IS NOT A CURE FOR DIABETES. Even with the most vigilant disease management, a significant portion of your day will be spent with either high or low blood-sugar levels. These fluctuations place people with T1D at risk for potentially life-threatening hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic episodes as well as devastating long-term complications such as kidney failure, heart attack, stroke, blindness and amputation. JDRF WORKS EVERY DAY TO CHANGE THE REALITY OF THIS DISEASE FOR MILLIONS OF PEOPLE — and to prevent anyone else from ever knowing it—by funding research, advocating for government support of research and new therapies, ensuring new therapies come to market and connecting and engaging the T1D community. THE JDRF SEATTLE GUILD was created by people with a personal connection to T1D. In 1989, a small group of friends led by Sherry and Larry Benaroya founded the JDRF Seattle Guild, launching their first Dream Gala the following year. Our supporters have an unrelenting passion and commitment to improving the lives of all people with type 1 diabetes. YOU’RE THE REASON FOR OUR SUCCESS. EVERY DOLLAR WE PUT TOWARD RESEARCH COMES FROM DONATIONS. So when you support JDRF with your time, talent, voice and, yes, your money, you enable us to advance even more research.
There are many ways to join the JDRF family, but for 45 years there has been only one reason—because WE ARE THE ORGANIZATION THAT WILL TURN TYPE ONE INTO TYPE NONE.

SPECIAL WINES FOR A SPECIAL CAUSE
TWO REMARKABLE CAYUSE WINES – ONE CRITICAL CAUSE. Together, we can help make life better for people with diabetes, while working to eradicate the disease completely. In support of the JDRF Dream Gala, Cayuse Vineyards vigneron Christophe Baron has once again reached deep into his library and chosen two remarkable wines for auction. In breathtaking etched bottles, both wines have received high praise from wine reviewers and Cayuse members alike.
• 2012 Cayuse Vineyards Armada Vineyard Syrah, 3L etched bottle 96 points, Jeb Dunnuck, The Wine Advocate. “One of the more burly, structured releases from this estate…. The 2012 gives up lots of iodine, raw meats and floral notes that are balanced by a core of distinct black raspberry fruit…. Full-bodied, tight and yet nicely concentrated, with good tannin....”
• 2012 Cayuse Vineyards God Only Knows Grenache, 3L etched bottle 96 points, Sean Sullivan, The Wine Enthusiast. “It takes some time to open up but when it does, this wine reveals perfumed aromas of potpourri, green olive, savory spices, peat, pepper and mineral.

SCULPTURAL GL ASS ART PIECE YUGOSLAVIAN-BORN EMMA VARGA settled in Australia more than 20 years ago, where she developed her signature technique of fusing and casting multiple layers of thin sheets of glass. Using her complex, labor-intensive process, she sets up layers that make a three-dimensional image inside a large fused and cast transparent glass form. Once cooled, ground and polished, the veil-like structures floating in a sea of clear glass can be seen. Her current work focuses on environmental concerns—raising awareness by visually communicating both the beauty and fragility of our natural environment. This stunning piece, “Vibrant Blue”, perfectly communicates the simple and captivating beauty of nature.

SIX BOTTLES OF PRODIGIOUS VELVETY SPANISH RED
“The 2011 Clos Mogador feels ripe, serious and young. Rene Barbier likes to pick ripe grapes but without any raisins making it into the vats. The wine is a blend of Gamacha, Carinena, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. But the wine speaks more of the place than the grapes, with notes of slate, thyme, rosemary, lavender, black cherries and a supple palate, full-bodied, with pungent flavors, round, velvety tannins and a long aftertaste. This is a superb effort for such a warm vintage, the warmest and driest in Priorat since 2003. Only 30,000 bottles are produced of this prodigious, powerful but balanced Priorat.”

SIX BOTTLES OF INTENSE SANGIOVESE
“The 2010 Brunello di Montalcino is a striking wine that shows uncompromising varietal pureness, albeit in a most concentrated and elaborate form. This is what great Sangiovese is all about. There’s so much happening on the nose and the wine brings you to cherry, spice, licorice, cured meat, pressed rose, and grilled meat in equal measure. No one element overpowers the next. The mouthfeel is also tight and bright with the kind of fruit intensity that promises long cellar aging. This Brunello is only at the beginning of a long road ahead. The longer the wine stays in the glass the more it offers in terms of complexity and intensity. This is a true standout that can be enjoyed for up to 20 years ahead. Never have I encountered an Il Poggioni Brunello as beautiful as the one released this year. This is one of the highest expressions of Sangiovese you will ever taste.”

Beautiful all around, with fabulous purity of fruit and a layered, seamless character, it exhibits notions of crème de cassis, lead pencil shavings, tobacco leaf and edgy minerality.

SHOW YOUR STRIPES TIGER SCULPTURE – PIPER O’NEILL
TEN ACCLAIMED LOCAL ARTISTS have donated their time and expertise to Woodland Park Zoo by turning a sculpted tiger into a unique artistic masterpiece. These artists all had a conservation theme in mind while making their vision come to life by painting these tigers. After each tiger was painted, they hit the road and settled into their temporary homes across the Puget Sound region. Show Your Stripes, recently on display at the Woodland Park Zoo, is shown below enjoying a visit from Alberto, the Zoo’s famous free-roaming peacock and self-appointed greeter. After gaining much popularity in these locations, it is now time that these tigers find a permanent home of their own. “My tiger’s theme of Connected Forests is an opportunity to relate the need to forge meaningful connections we experience as humans with the very literal need of the Malayan tiger to safely traverse and connect with different geographic locations. The parallel exists in that both contexts are an undeniable requirement for life to continue. My material usage includes auto body paint, vinyl wrap and plexiglass.” – Piper O’Neill VALUE: Priceless DONOR: The Seattle Seahawks

ALLEROMB The world’s greatest wines come from single vineyards, each wine showcasing its unique “terroir” or sense of place. The purity and individuality of true estate wines delights and captivates with the dramatic and distinct differences a few miles or even a few hundred feet can make. Alleromb proudly continues this tradition by sourcing from a single vineyard complex ideally situated to produce wines with elegance, power, longevity and intense perfume. www.alleromb.com
ÀMAURICE CELL ARS Situated on 13 perfectly sloped acres in the Blue Mountains of Walla Walla, àMaurice Cellars is a family-owned boutique winery that creates extraordinary, food-friendly wines. Each wine is the living result of fervent dedication to sustainable viticulture and the passion and skill of expert winemaking—and the growing talents of more than 15,000 select vines. www.amaurice.com
AMBASSADOR WINES OF WASHINGTON Ambassador was founded on the simple belief that no other experience is quite as enchanting as drinking wine. We know that something magical happens when you drink wine with friends; good wine becomes great wine and good friends become better friends. Formed in 2004, and named after the mystical vineyard that has been so good to us, Ambassador’s vision is to become the top estate-producing winery on Washington state’s Red Mountain. www.ambassador vineyard.com
ANDREW WILL WINERY Andrew Will is among Washington’s top producers making single vineyard red wines that express Washington state terroir from Columbia Valley Vineyards. Founded in 1989, originally located in an industrial space in Seattle, Andrew Will’s winery facilities are now housed on Vashon Island and produce about 4,500 cases of wine a year. Since the f irst vintage in 1989, we have tried to improve our artisanal skills as winemakers as well as to conform to the simple ideas with which we started. The most important of these has been the primacy of the vineyard. www.andrewwill.com
ARMSTRONG FAMILY WINERY Armstrong Family Winery is one the area’s fastest growing young wineries. Specializing in distinctive Bordeaux-inspired blends, Armstrong’s award-winning wines are hand-crafted at their own facility in Woodinville’s Warehouse Winery District. Winemaker Tim Armstrong works closely with carefully selected partner vineyards in Eastern Washington to produce exceptional wines that express the character of Washington State. Armstrong wines are available at select retailers and restaurants, the Woodinville tasting room and online at www.armstrongwiner y.com
AVENNIA Our goal is to make wines that evoke clarity: clarity of place, clarity of type, clarity of purpose. We believe this is best expressed by using the classic French varietals and blends, with methods passed down over generations. We work within this context to allow Washington vineyards and terroirs to distinguish themselves. Terroir is only readily appreciable in a well-formed, harmonious wine. Structure is the backbone from which beauty can radiate. Our wines are designed to tease rather than flaunt; pique interest, not beg for attention. They stand for elegance, delicacy, purity. Our wines are made to enhance conversation, not dominate it, and will be a welcome guest at the table. www.avennia.com
BAER WINERY Our small, family-owned and operated enterprise is dedicated to producing the f inest blends of exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot. Baer Winery is one of the Woodinville family of elite wine producers who share a vision to offer something just a bit different. Our vineyards are located in the dry, desert lands of Eastern Washington. www.baerwiner y.com
BARONS WINERY Barons was formed in 2001 by f ive partners who share an avid interest in f ine wines. Our f irst vintage at Barons was made in 2001, and since day one we have been dedicated to producing world-class, premium wines from the f inest vineyards in Washington state. We are committed to the classic red and white grape varietals of Bordeaux, and strive to make the best expressions of them possible. Barons’ state-of-the-art winery and barrel aging facility is located in the Woodinville Wine Country, and our vineyards are located in the dry, desert lands of Eastern Washington. www.baronsv.com
BARRAGE CELL ARS Barrage Cellars is a Boutique Winery. Making wine in true “Garagiste” style, focusing on 100% varietals from the f inest vineyards and regions of Washington combined with the f inest barrels from France and a few from America is what Barrage Cellars is all about. Our winemaker is not against blending grapes of different varietals but prefers to showcase the elegance and nuances of single varietals from Washington State. www.barragecellars.com
BETZ FAMILY WINERY Since our f irst vintage in 1997 we’ve had a single minded goal of crafting compelling wines with individual character that are approachable and age worthy, and which showcase Washington as a distinguished wine region of the world. Today, Betz Family Winery is headed by our two families, both committed to be true to our heritage, our family members, and true to what Betz winery embodies: wines of dimension and pleasure, wines that allow the character of Washington to shine through. They are a blend of the best elements of the new and the old worlds; full ripe fruit and yet structured for longevity. www.betzfamilywiner y.com
CADARETTA AND L AWRELIN Cadaretta and Lawrelin wines are both made by Winemaker Kendall Mix, who has been making wine in Washington State for more than 20 years. Both of these wineries produce hand crafted, artisan wines that source their fruit from multiple vineyards around the Columbia Valley with emphasis on Red Mountain, Wahluke Slope, and Walla Walla AVA’s. Having a special focus on achieving optimally ripe fruit and capturing the essence of that fruit in their beautifully elegant wines. www.cadaretta.com | lawrelinwines.blogspot.com/p/wines.html
CAVE B ESTATE WINERY Cave B Estate Winery is an award-winning boutique winery located in the Ancient Lakes of Columbia Valley AVA, in the center of Washington Wine Country. We grow a broad range of grape varieties, made possible in large part by the microclimates which exist in our distinctive cliff-side location, 900 feet above the Columbia River. Winemaker, Alfredo “Freddy” Arredondo selects the very best from our estate vineyards. A former chef, Freddy brings a deep understanding of the beauty of wine and food pairing to his winemaking process. His great passion is marrying Cave B wines in a dynamic way with foods. www.caveb.com
CHATEAU STE. MICHELLE Chateau Ste. Michelle is Washington state’s founding winery featuring award-winning wines and an unparalleled tasting experience at our historic chateau and grounds near Seattle. Founded in 1934, Chateau Ste. Michelle pioneered vinifera grape growing in Washington state and has been producing classic European varietal wines under the Ste. Michelle label since 1967. The winery combines an ongoing dedication to research with a commitment to classic winemaking traditions.

CÔTE BONNEVILLE At Côte Bonneville, we believe that great wine is made in the vineyard. We planted classic varietals in 1992 after tearing out the original orchard. We continue to develop the vineyard with one goal in mind: to grow the best grapes possible from our site. Our commitment to producing the highest quality fruit has been appreciated by our winery customers, consumers of their wines, and wine reviewers. www.cotebonneville.com
CÔTES DE CIEL At Côtes de Ciel, our winemaking approach is an extension of the terroir of the vineyard; what we do and when we do it can have a profound effect on a wine. Everything from deciding when to harvest the grapes, how to crush and press the grapes, fermentation protocol, and barrel selection make a difference. To guide us in our decision making, we adhere to a core set of values: use the best winemaking team available, respect the terroir of the vineyard, and innovate. www.cotesdeciel.com
COVINGTON CELL ARS Crafting limited production, award-winning wines is half of our goal here at Covington Cellars. The other half is to make our guests feel like family.

DUNHAM CELL ARS At Dunham Cellars we produce premium wines through gentle treatment in all phases of the winemaking process. Using grapes from some of the finest vineyards in the Walla Walla, Yakima and Columbia Valleys our wines reflect our commitment to quality from vineyard to bottle and showcase the quality of our vineyards and their combinations of climate, soil and geography. From our very first vintage, a 1995 Cabernet Sauvignon, our wines have earned high marks from both consumers and trade. We continue to make wines that are not only structured and balanced but that we enjoy and are proud to hang the Dunham name on. www.dunhamcellars.com
FIDÉLITAS Fidélitas is a family-owned boutique winery, rooted on the slopes of Red Mountain. Fidélitas is faithful to Bordeaux grape varieties, loyal to modern craft winemaking techniques, and true to the terroir of Washington state’s Red Mountain AVA.

By focusing on the unique interaction of soil, climate and vines over the last 30 years, they have grown premium grapes for many highly acclaimed Washington state wineries. In 2002, the brothers decided to showcase their vineyard by opening Gamache Vintners in Prosser.

This wine is balanced and approachable but built to age for more than 10 years. Matt shares this single barrel with gala guests this evening to give them a one of a kind gem to hold in their cellar for enjoyment at the finest occasions. Only 75 bottles were produced then carefully sand carved and hand painted to preserve the beauty of this work of art. www.matteowines.com

Old World Character. New World Wine. www.robertramsaycellars.com
ROTIE CELL ARS Since 2007, winemaker and owner Sean Boyd’s goal has been to make traditional Rhone blends in Washington State.

Tranche works with carefully-selected varietals, each matched to a specific, unique, weather-blessed location.

WOODINVILLE WINE CELL ARS Woodinville Wine Cellars produces small quantities of handcrafted wines, meticulously monitored, from the moment the fruit is hand harvested to the day the wine is carefully bottled. This artisan approach allows us to preserve the delicate balance of aromas and unique characteristics of each wine. Woodinville Wine Cellars was established in 2002 by Stan Barrett, president and CEO of Art Culinaire, sole US distributor for Lacanche professional cooking ranges handcrafted in France. Living in Europe gave Stan a profound respect for fresh, seasonal cuisine and the family table. When Art Culinaire grew into its current building—for decades a licensed winery—Stan’s vision for pairing fine food with great wine became reality. www.woodinvillewinecellars.com
W.T. VINTNERS W.T. Vintners, we are crafting terroir driven wines which highlight the aromas, flavors, and nuance of vineyard sites made special by ancient geological cataclysms. We embrace a holistic approach both in the vineyard and winery. Organic and biodynamic farming are a constant pursuit with our contracted growers in the greater Columbia Valley and Columbia Gorge. We practice simple methods and techniques rooted in winemaking tradition. Our goal is to have as little impact on the wine as possible, thereby allowing the vineyard, not the winemaker, to express itself. We are a family of friends seeking to make wines of ultra-premium quality. Our wine is made to be enjoyed with good friends and good food, not hoarded and locked away. www.wtvintners.com
