Why this package wins for nonprofits
Napa Valley wine country draws passionate bidders every time—and this package delivers the specific experience they're chasing: a private, personalized tour of three distinct wineries paired with three nights in one of five carefully selected Downtown Napa hotels (Archer House, Cabernet House, Napa River Inn, Andaz Napa, or Silverado Resort & Spa). Wine lovers at your auction understand that a private driver and a tailored winery itinerary—not a generic group tour—is what makes the difference between a pleasant afternoon and a transformative tasting. This is the kind of package that drives bidding wars because it's tangible, highly personal, and speaks directly to a donor's passion. For your nonprofit, the math is equally clear: zero upfront cost under HGA's consignment model. You pay the $4,595 reserve only if the package sells. Every bid above that number—whether it reaches $5,500 or $8,000—flows directly to your mission. Your team doesn't carry inventory risk; you simply watch the bidding climb.
The experience your winner walks into
Your winners arrive in Downtown Napa and check into their chosen hotel—perhaps the riverside Napa River Inn, the wine-country elegance of Meritage Resort & Spa, or the historic character of Archer House. Over three nights, they settle into the rhythms of the valley. The centerpiece arrives on day two: a private driver collects them from their hotel and guides them on a personally tailored tour of three wineries, each stop curated to match their palate and interests. They taste, they learn, they linger over views of rolling vineyards. Between winery visits, they return to Downtown Napa to dine, walk the riverfront, and experience the region at their own pace. It's not rushed; it's not crowded. It's wine country the way serious wine lovers experience it.
