Our live Napa Valley lifestyle programs are broadcast on the first two Thursdays of every month through December, featuring experts that will entertain and inspire you.”

Each program is free to join and available to anyone with online or streaming access. The “My Wine, My Garden” themed series commences this week sharing the talents of Estate Horticulturist, Brianne Hoover.

A range of topics from backyard gardening, grilling, sustainable seafood, Napa Valley harvest 2021,  to holiday entertaining will be explored.

With a focus upon a singular wine in each live broadcast, a winemaker will discuss how it is made, share real-time vineyard updates, and Estate Chef, Tod Kawachi will give a cooking demonstration along with tips and dishes to pair with that wine.
