Talking about the Napa Valley Vintners’ 17th annual Premiere Napa Valley, which brought in $3.04 million, Bruce Cakebread, president and chief operating officer of Cakebread Cellars and 2013 president of the NVV’s board of directors, said:

“We are grateful for the continued success of Premiere Napa Valley, which has allowed the NVV to expand its activities and programs, including our environmental leadership, outreach to the local community, our efforts to promote the appellation worldwide, and the vital protection of the Napa Valley name on a bottle of wine. We feel the quality of these programs is as stellar as the quality of our wines.”
