Summer 2005 - - Auction Napa Valley

We had a busy wine auction week and a successful one - with the auction bringing in over a record-breaking $10.5 million this year.

In addition to pouring our Napa Dan wines at the Friday festival, we also hosted a very beautiful brunch in our Lynch Knoll vineyard on lower Spring Mountain . Some 30 plus guests mingled with Dan Lynch and our winemaker Gary Galleron who was manning the bar serving up the latest Lynch wine releases.

Dan Lynch auctioned off a signed 3 liter of our 2002 Lynch Cabernet, which went for $2400, 100% of the proceeds benefit Auction Napa Valley.
