Are you ready for your close-up? Naples Winter Wine Festival 2006 Honored Vintners, Shari and Garen Staglin, have teamed up with Rich Frank, Past President of Walt Disney Studios, legendary entertainment industry executive and owner of Frank Family Vineyards, Steve McPherson, President of ABC Entertainment, and Bill Curtis, CEO of CurtCo Media to create a movie star experience and fantasy trip for the lucky winners of this lot.

You’ll arrive in star style on February 23rd, flying first class and then hopping into a limousine for a ride to the acclaimed Peninsula Beverly Hills Hotel for this once-in-many-lifetimes experience at the 2008 Academy Awards® presentation at the Kodak Theater in Hollywood. Cap off your first night in La La Land with a gourmet dinner at The Belvedere, named the Best Hotel Restaurant in Southern California by the Zagat Survey. Get a good night’s sleep – you’ll need it for the next day’s excitement!

After a pampering session generally reserved for LA’s well heeled glitterati at the Peninsula Spa, you’ll be ready to walk the red carpet. Rub elbows with film stars, producers, writers, directors, cinematographers and sound editors (to name a few) as you attend the 2008 Academy Awards television broadcast from the Kodak Theater in Hollywood.

After “Best Picture,” it’s off to THE after-party! You and your guests will be “on the list” (showbiz talk for “VIP”) at the Vanity Fair Oscar party – regarded as the most exclusive shindig on Oscar night. Bring your shades because the stars (and the paparazzi’s flashbulbs) will be shining everywhere!

Even better than meeting a celebrity is becoming one. You’ll co-star with Teri Hatcher of Desperate Housewives as well as Kelsey Grammer and Patricia Heaton of Back to You in walk-on roles on their hit prime-time shows! After your big TV debut, you’ll dine at the Malibu home of Lisa and Bill Curtis of CurtCo Media. Brett Anderson of the Robb Report will select the wines. Also joining you will be Jennifer and Steve McPherson, Rich Frank, Shari and Garen Staglin along with some celebrity guests!

One of the NWWF’s favorite celebrities is Judy Sheindlin, who’ll give you a private tour of the Judge Judy set, seats in her courtroom for a live taping and lunch with the judge herself. Then it’s off to the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art for a private tour with board chairman Cliff Einstein. He and his wife Mandy will host dinner that night for you and the Staglins, while showing you around their Brentwood home, which houses their incredible private art collection.

You’ll end your star-studded experience by flying in a private jet and indulging in two days of total bliss at the El Dorado Golf & Beach Club staying in your own beachfront villa at the premier private residential club in Cabo San Lucas. Play a round of golf, luxuriate at the spa and enjoy a gourmet dinner in one of the world’s hottest resort towns. Toast your trip over three fantastic “First Edition” wines, the 2006 Staglin Meritage Red, their first ever Bordeaux style blend, the 2004 inaugural release of Promise Meritage Red and the 2004 Frank Family Winston Hill Cabernet Sauvignon before flying back to LA.

A famously high bid could make you America’s next matinee idol!
