Toronto wine program donating all proceeds to local hospital

While restaurants and bars across the city are finding fresh ways to offer alcohol delivery to Torontonians, one established wine program has gone the extra mile.

Charlie’s Burgers, known for its dinner series and monthly wine program, in partnership with GrapeBrands Fine Wine & Spirits to donate all of its profits from home-delivery of cases to  Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre.

Curated by Donato Carozza and Franco Stalteri, of the CB Wine Program and GrapeBrands, the profits will be directed to the COVID-19 research response fund in hopes of improved diagnostics, vaccines, and antivirals, and anyone can get in on the action.

Each week, an updated portfolio of products will be available for purchase and immediate delivery via the Charlie’s Burgers website.

Delivery will be available for residents across Ontario, with the selection on offer including stellar wines from world-class producers, and iconic spirits from around the world.

Toronto-based charity, The Moez and Marissa Kassam Foundation will match the first $10,000 donation with an additional $10,000. KANDL Artistique will be doing the same.
