Diamond Creek Lake Vineyard lot Fetches $130,000!

The NAPA VALLEY REGISTER - June 6, 1999

"Top wine lot of the day was a rare collection of Diamond Creek Cabernet Sauvignon from the tiny Lake Vineyard. A 9-liter bottle of the 1987 vintage, coupled with magnums from the harvests 1992, 1994 and 1996, brought in a top bid of $130,000 from Red Adams, of Morgan City, La. "I came here to give money to charity." Adams admitted as photographers snapped pictures of him and his wife. "We're not collectors," he assured reporters. "We're gonna drink it."

The lot consisted of... three 1.5 liter bottles of Cabernet Sauvignon from vintages 1992,1994,1996 and one 9 liter bottle of 1987 Cabernet Sauvignon, cradled in a hand-forged grapevine motif centerpiece - Napa Valley Vintners Association
