Napa High Alumni Association
Legacy of Preservation, Scholarships, and Community Investment What began in the early 1990s as a small group of Napa High School graduates trying to save a piece of school history has grown into one of the region’s quiet but steady engines of community investment. Around 1991, several members of the Class of 1948 removed the original Indian emblem from the floor of the Napa High administration building after noticing it was being damaged by daily foot traffic. With the superintendent’s...

🎧The Wine Makers – Letizia Gini & Azienda Agricola Gini, Veneto
This week we sat down with Letizia Gini from Azienda Agricola Gini, one of Italy’s most historic family wineries. Founded in 1570, the Gini family has been making wine for 15 generations from the volcanic hills of Soave to the sun-drenched valleys of Valpolicella; their wines capture the rich diversity of the Veneto. The wines are distributed by Skurnik here in the U.S., we were joined by Omar Caruso and Joan Stagnaro, two of the reps for the wines in America. The Gini family has roots in the Soave Classico region dating from the seventh century and owns 25 hectares of vineyards situated on the very best hillside position of the appellation. Extremely low yields, low-interference viticulture, and devoted attention to expressing the unique character of each cru results in wines that are not only among the greatest Soaves but also among the great white wines of Italy. Both tradition and the modern are reflected at Gini. The hand-harvested Soave Classicos is 100% Garganega. Both the Soave

Mainland Rum Louisiana Aged 10 Years
Introduction Mainland Rum Louisiana Aged 10 Years. The American rum scene is currently going through a bit of a shake up.

The Canary Islands: Exploring a unique volcanic wine region
Inspired by a WSET webinar with Ana María Martín DipWSET, co-founder of the Canarias Wine Academy. Watch the webinar recording on the WSET Events Hub. Few wine regions challenge expectations quite like the Canary Islands. Located just 100 kilometres from the coast of Africa and more than 1,000 kilometres from mainland Spain, this Atlantic archipelago is home to some of the most dramatic vineyard landscapes in the world. Vines grow in volcanic ash, on steep terraces, across rugged mountainsides and at elevations that reach higher than anywhere else in Europe. Yet the vineyards are only part of the story. The Canary Islands are home to ungrafted vines, rare grape varieties and vineyard traditions that have disappeared from many other wine regions. Centuries of isolation have helped preserve both plant material and growing practices, creating a wine culture that remains distinct within Spain and beyond. Today, the islands are gaining international attention for wines shaped by volcanic so

HOW TO BUY, AND NOT TO BUY, VINEYARDS IN CHAMPAGNE
HOW TO BUY, AND NOT TO BUY, VINEYARDS IN CHAMPAGNE Some fascinating statistics about vineyards in France can be seen in the latest annual report from SAFER (Les Sociétés d’Aménagement Foncier et d’Établissement Rural) - the non-profit umbrella organisation whose brief is to track and guide the use and development of rural land in the best communal interest. Amongst the nine wine making regions in France covered in the report, Champagne is one of only 3 where the price of vineyard land increased in 2025. The drop in prices was most acute in the Bordeaux and Aquitaine region where prices fell by almost 24% versus 2024 Having said this, the price rise in Champagne during the same period was only a modest 0.9% but at an average price of 1.13 million euros per hectare, that is 7 times higher than the average for the entire country! Even more striking is the fact that the report reveals that Champagne represents just 8% of the total surface area of vineyards in France, yet accou
