Last month, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pressdemocrat.com\/article\/lifestyle\/twomey-newton-vineyards-close\/\">St. Helena\u2019s Newton Vineyard and Calistoga\u2019s Twomey closed<\/a>, followed by family-owned <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sonomamag.com\/thumbprint-cellars-closes-downtown-healdsburg-tasting-room-after-15-years\/\">Thumbprint Cellars in Healdsburg<\/a> (the winery plans to move operations to its rural Geyserville headquarters).<\/p>\n<p>On the positive side, wine remains a major draw for Sonoma and Napa county organizations working to do good and support charitable causes. So far, many local wineries continue to sponsor and take part in fundraising events that ultimately cost them money. Typically, they donate both the wines being poured and those up for auction, all in support of nonprofit organizations.<\/p>\n<p>For wineries, sponsoring fundraising events elevates their brands, expands their reach to a wider audience and provides tax deductions.<\/p>\n<p>For nonprofits, winery sponsorship can boost event participation and markedly increase profits while reducing costs.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, a 9-liter bottle (called a Salmanazar) of 2021 Markham Vineyards Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon fetched a jaw-dropping $225,000 at the 2025 Champions Wine Auction and Dinner at the NRG Center in Houston, Texas. (Not bad for a bottle that retails for $49 in its 750 ml format!) The event benefited the Houston Rodeo Education Fund, which provides scholarships, grants and educational programs for Texas youth.<\/p>\n<p>The St. Helena winery can now boast the winning bid came from a real estate development group that included recording artist Curtis \u201c50 Cent\u201d Jackson.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_42527\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-42527\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-42527 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sonomamag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Wine-and-flowers-at-Quivira-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Passport to Dry Creek Valley wine event\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sonomamag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Wine-and-flowers-at-Quivira.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sonomamag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Wine-and-flowers-at-Quivira-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sonomamag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Wine-and-flowers-at-Quivira-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-42527\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Celebrate spring in Sonoma Wine Country at the Passport to Dry Creek Valley festival in April.
