The 2026 LIVE Auction Napa was held at the historic Inglenook Winery and what a spectacular, meaningful night it was. As founding Chair of this monumental event founded in 1981 and which to date has raised almost $250 Million dollars for health and education; Vintner Robin Lail was honored with the first LIFETIME Acheivement AWARD for her 45 year commitment to the Napa Valley Vintners and to supporting the needs of so many children and families who make our valley thrive. Robin Daniel’s Lail grew up in this very home so we know it meant the world to her to receive this award honoring her past in more ways than one. Thank you also to Mr Frances Ford Coppola for being such a wonderful host! #auctionnapa #NapaValley #inglenookwinery #napavintners.

We treasure our baby doll sheep in wine country. Those little darlings are busy getting the vineyard ready for the growing season. And Rufus over there is on guard to take care of our little darlings. Good job little buddy. #grapegrowing #napavalley #babydollsheep ... See MoreSee Less
Pruning trims the tail off of winter and signals to the grapevine spring is on its way. Prune too soon and risk damage if a hard frost hits, while delaying pruning can protect the vine from waking up too soon. Grapes grow on new wood so cane or spur pruning removes the dead wood from the past year. This gorgeous vineyard off HWY 29 in Calistoga is prime for pruning so keep an eye out. It happens fast. #grapegrowing #pruning #seasonsofthegrapevine ... See MoreSee Less
