Wine Spectator: At The 45th Auction Napa Valley, Vintners Raised $6.5 Million To Benefit Local Youth

From June 5 to 7, the Napa Valley wine community welcomed guests from around the world to the 45th edition of Auction Napa Valley, a weekend of celebration involving dinners with vintners, the chance to sample not-yet-released wines and bidding on unique bottlings and lavish travel experiences.

Organized annually by the Napa Valley Vintners, the 2025 event brought in $6.5 million, with the proceeds going to the NVV’s Youth Wellness Initiative. The funds will be donated to non-profit partners in Napa Valley that support after-school and summer programs for children and teens. Begun in 1981, Auction Napa Valley has raised $230 million over the years for Napa County children and other community services for all ages. Wine Spectator has the full story.
