Let them eat cake

January may seem far away, but the organizers of the Naples Winter Wine Festival are busy planning over-the-top auction lots and touting renowned vintners.

One of the auction lots is fit for a king: The winner gets a private tour of the Versailles chateaux outside of Paris and a rare dinner in the private apartments of Louis XV.

Other exotic lots include a weeklong cruise in Burgundy's wine region of France, a trip to Asia on a private jet and a trip to Florence, Italy, to visit the luxury jewelry showroom of Fratelli Piccini.
