About us
It began as most things do in Napa Valley: over a table replete with good food and good wines. In 1943, seven Napa Valley vintners began meeting to exchange ideas and work as a group to overcome industry obstacles and elevate the status of Napa Valley wines. In 1944, the vintners decided to formalize their relationship and the Napa Valley Vintners trade organization was established. Now, 80 years later, that epicurean and social camaraderie has grown into a spirited partnership committed to advancing Napa Valley wines worldwide. The Napa Valley Vintners, a regional trade association with an active membership of nearly 550 wineries, represents a tradition of dedicated vintners and grape growers who have worked and cared for this premier winegrowing region since the early 1800s. Today, Napa Valley Vintners (NVV) is widely recognized as one of the leading wine trade organizations in the world. Our vintners are committed leaders - breaking new ground at home and in the larger wine community. Whether raising funds for local charity organizations (Auction Napa Valley has given more than $230 million to local non-profits since its inception in 1981) or raising international consumer awareness regarding truth in labeling, Napa Valley Vintners are constantly seeking new and innovative ways to promote, protect and enhance the wine region they call home.

#WhyWine? Jason Lede, general manager at Cliff Lede Vineyards, thinks wine is a lot like music. "Just like music, you can share it, you can use it to revisit moments, you can use it to create moments... so wine truly is one of the greatest things that helps enhance that life experience."

Jenna and Mara York, co-founders of JennaMarise, are very passionate about wine — and it shows in their #whywine story. "It's a living, evolving thing. No wine bottle will ever taste exactly the same as any other wine." "Every winemaking region is different, known for different varietals and winemaking philosophies, so it enables everyone to find something they will enjoy." Tell us your #whywine story!

This is a top secret message to our friends at Oregon Wine Board, Paso Robles Wine Country Alliance, Sonoma County Winegrowers, Sonoma County Vintners, CIVC - comité Interprofessionnel du vin de champagne, Finger Lakes Wine Alliance, Monterey County Vintners & Growers Association and others: We want you to join The "Why Wine" Project. It's simple: Ask your wineries to share their "Why Wine?" video in social media, answering the question, why wine? You can see a few of our vintners answering that question below. In fact, we are inviting any wine producer/brand/collector/educator/consumer from any wine brand/region to join in and share their "Why Wine" story. This is about sharing our stories of why we love wine with each other, and with those that may not know much about wine. We'll be on the lookout for posts from any region and sharing them in our social. We can't wait to see the stories! https://lnkd.in/ej34Geka
