Short of robbing a liquor store, when and where can you even imagine having the opportunity to taste more than 100 wines in one sitting? On March 6, that's when, at the Holiday Inn on Fort Lauderdale Beach (999 N. Fort Lauderdale Beach Blvd., Fort Lauderdale). That's when Share Our Strength, in association with Sonoma County Wineries Association, will host A Sonoma County Wine Experience, a tasting that features that region's wineries -- 118 of 'em. The event is open to the public from 6:30 till 9 p.m., and tickets cost $40; proceeds benefit Share Our Strength, which fights hunger and poverty. Now, just by getting tipsy, you can do the same. Call 877-982-7838 or snag your tix online at www.TasteUSA.com.
