* SILENT AUCTION ITEM *

If this were JUST a magnum of Variation One, it would be a pretty special item. But when you combine it with an intimate tasting at the Victorian home of the winemakers, Fritz and Caren Hatton, in St. Helena, it becomes a truly unique experience. Variation One is a harmonious cuvee of syrah and merlot from the Hudson Vineyard in Carneros. This powerful blend will impress in its youth, but is worthy of long term cellaring. Screaming Eagle Winemaker Andy Erickson oversees production. Special thanks to Lyda Cort and Andy Stadler for acquiring this auction item.
