Premiere Napa Valley
The wine trade's most exclusive access event — a Sotheby's auction of unique cuvées made exclusively for the event, preceded by three days of barrel tastings at 200+ participating Napa wineries. Trade-only, but licensed buyers can register remotely to bid on one-of-a-kind Napa lots. The Grand Barrel Tasting on Saturday is the week's centrepiece, offering unreleased 2024 vintage access months before commercial release.
