Wine Auction of Napa and Sonoma Wines

The best-kept secret in the Napa Valley is the upcoming Justin-Siena Wine Auction. Trying to find anything about this auction is pretty impossible, as you have to be in the know to even have heard of it, and ColoGuy has the scoop. If you love great Napa and Sonoma wines then your should treat yourself to a trip to the area and attend this auction.

The auction benefits the academic and scholarship programs at the Justin-Sienna High School in the Napa Valley from which many of the vintners of the Napa Valley graduated. Started and co-sponsored by the Dominican Sisters of San Rafael and the Christian Brothers of the San Francisco District, the school is dedicated to offering a college preparatory curriculum to young men and women from diverse backgrounds.

The auction is on April 8th, 2006 and is held at the Silver Oak Cellars in Oakville, Napa general admission is $125 and $200 VIP. You need to contact Beth Fox at the Justin-Siena High School for tickets. The interesting lots that have sold over the past 6 years at this closely kept secret auction, have included some rare wines and interesting wine groupings that appeal to wine collectors all over the country.

Book early if you plan to visit the auction, most Napa Valley Bed and Breakfast’s get booked early on the weekends and finding great accomodations in downtown Napa or a Sonoma Bed and Breakfast gets more difficult during the summer months.
