Our lot is an Oakville Mystery of the disappearing Groth Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon. As you all know we’ve replanted the vineyard since the 1999 vintage and since then we have not produced a Reserve Cab. The 2005 released later this year marks it’s return, mystery solved. Our good friend, Nadia Gordon, is a writer of mystery novels that are set in the Napa Valley. A complete, autographed set of her wine related ‘Sonny McKoskey series’ novels are included in this lot. Nadia will also make the winning bidder a named character in her next mystery novel. Click on the link below to learn more about Auction Napa Valley and E Auction.
