Liquorama, Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center Foundation and Claremont Toyota Team to Benefit Hospital’s Neonatal and Pediatric Units

Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center Foundation and John Solomon, noted wine expert and owner of Liquorama Fine Wines and Spirits in Upland, will host the 10th Annual Wine Tasting event on Friday, May 9, at the Sheraton Fairplex Hotel and Conference Center in Pomona. This year’s event is presented by Claremont Toyota. 

Solomon spends months in preparation for the annual wine tasting, personally working with wineries, importers and distributors to select wines from their respective cellars for the event, which has become the Inland Empire “can’t miss” wine tasting. 

“Liquorama is honored to partner with Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center Foundation to support its outstanding care for newborns and infants in its neonatal intensive care and pediatric units,” Solomon said. “We are passionate about and committed to helping the hospital raise funds to benefit its most vulnerable patients.”
