Dining for Charity

A wine dinner for a worthy cause - what a sensible idea to capitalise on tigerish appetites to good effect. The Housing Association for Integrated Living - a voluntary body involved in housing people with special needs in the greater Dublin area - is holding a gourmet event in the Stephen's Green Club on Thursday, April 27th. Accompanying the four-course dinner are wines from Gilbeys, including Jaboulet's white Crozes-Hermitage Mule Blanche, the red Crozes Domaine de Thalabert and Jaboulet's Cornas Domaine St Pierre. Martin Moran, the company's Master of Wine, will unravel their charms. Tickets £75 from Isabelle Wallace of HAIL, tel: 01-6718444, fax: 01-6703265, email: hailindigo.ie
