Fine wine not exactly your thing? No problem! Our auction inventory also includes unique travel experiences for those of you itching to get away once it's safe to travel again. Huge thank you to owners Michael and Stephanie Woods for donating a two-night stay at the iconic Hotel Mount View on Calistoga’s Lincoln Avenue.
After many months of staying at home, we are all eager to get away and enjoy a change of scenery. And what better way to do that than relaxing in the heart of Napa Valley’s wine country just steps from the action and worlds away from the norm! The Mount View Hotel & Spa will welcome you each evening with a complimentary glass of Napa Valley wine and greet you each morning with complimentary breakfast and their famous pour-over coffee.
This lot also includes two $100 meal vouchers for dining at the hotel's two terrific in-house restaurants: Veraison, a Napa Valley bistro focused on incredible Italian, French and Spanish ingredients, and Johnny’s Restaurant & Bar!

Tonight we are proud to feature another one of our amazing donors, Silver Oak Cellars. Silver Oak began over a handshake between two friends with a bold vision: focus on one varietal, Cabernet Sauvignon, aged exclusively in American oak and worthy of cellaring for decades to come.⠀
⠀
Today, Silver Oak farms more than 400 acres of vines in Napa Valley and Alexander Valley with a leading-edge approach toward farming and viticulture, and the softest possible impact on natural resources and the environment. Silver Oak has been cited as one of a dozen California wineries which "have reached cult status" for its Cabernet Sauvignon production, and occupies an important niche in California's wine industry.⠀
⠀
In 2016, ten years after a fire destroyed their historic Oakville winery, Silver Oak's new Oakville winery became the first commercial winery in the world to earn the U.S. Green Building Council's LEED Platinum Certification for efficient energy use. ⠀
⠀
You can bid on several Silver Oak vintages in less than 48 hours! Registration link in bio.
Wine for a Cause wouldn't be possible without the generous support of our incredible donors! From now until the silent auction goes live Friday at 5:00 PM ET (REGISTRATION LINK IN BIO), we're going to be featuring a few of the vintners and oenophiles whose support has been critical in making our virtual event a success -- starting with Gargiulo Vineyards.⠀
⠀
Since their first commercial release in 2000, Gargiulo Vineyards has quietly taken its place among the most highly regarded Cabernet Sauvignon producers in Napa Valley. Jeff Gargiulo and his wife, Valerie, founded their establishment in the early nineties after more than a decade prior of inspiration and coaching from Valerie’s cousins, who were esteemed Napa winemakers. Over the years they pursued their quest to create incredible wine from their now two vineyard locations in Oakville–a hands-on operation that consists of Jeff, Valerie, daughter April, and son-in-law Mitch. ⠀
⠀
You will find Gargiulo Vineyards' 2016 Oakville Sessions Cab, 2016 G Major 7 Study Cab, and their 2017 Money Road Ranch Cab featured in our auction inventory, as well as a Gargiulo Vineyard Tasting for six people! Thank you, Jeff and Valerie!
