We had such a blast attending and participating our first Napa Valley Film Festival and can't wait to do it all over again for 2017. Even though the power went out the night we hosted our Vintner Circle Dinner, miraculously the power came on right before guests arrived and everyone enjoyed the evening. Of the movies we were able to watch, we recommend "Gold" and "Lion". Looking forward to seeing you all this November!

On Saturday, December 3rd, we dedicated our Grand Tasting Room to the men and women who have served our Country in the Military Services. We especially honored QM3 (Ret) Kenneth Delfino for serving bravely in Vietnam. Here are some photos and a video capturing the dedication.

We picked the first of our grapes and it was Viognier! The Sauvignon Blanc is usually the first to be harvested, but the Viognier decided it was its turn. Picking began bright and early around 5:30am. The fruit was supple and sweet. Here are a couple of pictures and more to come as harvest continues!
