The Stags Leap District Winegrowers recently celebrated its 20th Annual Vineyard to Vintner event. Each year, member wineries of the Stags Leap District Winegrowers in California’s famed Napa Valley open their doors for one weekend, giving visitors exclusive access to the wines, vineyards, and people behind this iconic wine region. Visitors enjoy unparalleled personal, backstage access to private homes and historic wineries alike. The weekend includes exclusive dinners, private tours, barrel tastings, food pairings, music, and experiences—all set among

 

the glorious vineyards and towering Palisades of the Stags Leap District. To further support relief efforts from the recent Northern California wildfires, 5 percent of the proceeds from this year’s Saturday Open House tickets will be donated to the Napa Valley Community Foundation.

“Vineyard to Vintner is a rare opportunity for wine enthusiasts to have VIP access to the owners, and winemakers in our iconic appellation,” said Nancy Bialek, Executive Director of Stags Leap District Winegrowers. “It’s truly an extraordinary weekend with library wine dinners, open houses, a vintner-hosted lunch, and the first taste of the critically acclaimed 2015 Cabernet Sauvignons from Stags Leap District. If you are a Cabernet fan you simply can’t miss this event.”
