Auction Lot

IS THERE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A 100 POINT WINE AND A 99 POINT WINE?

Here is your chance to find out! We are pleased to offer at least four wines in this lot with 100-point scores and another six with 99 points. You can have your own dinner party to see if you can tell the difference!

Napa Valley is only 30 miles long and five miles across at its widest point. But it has an amazing variety of wines. This is because within this small area there are 16 different sub appellations which contain 33 different soil series. In addition to the top scorers, we’ve managed to curate a diverse array of the top wineries—it’s all here: verticals and horizontals, a true collector’s delight!

This lot comprises the ‘rarest of the rare’: Fewer than 500 cases of the 1987 Diamond Creek were produced—how many do you think are left?

Rare and great—it doesn’t get any better than that!

Donated by Sarah and Jon Baum, Christine and Dan Blegen, Melissa and Jim Carnes, Nicki and Jeremy Fry, Peggy and Bill Lyons, Liz and Greg Maday, and Jane and Josh Sosland
