California Wines - Personally Selected Premium Wines Delivered Across Europe

Few names are as closely associated with California wine as Robert Mondavi. When he founded his own winery, Robert Mondavi Winery, in Oakville in 1966, he had rather ambitious plans. He wanted to prove that Napa Valley could produce wines capable of matching the quality of the finest wines from Europe.

Today, we invite you to the picturesque Alexander Valley in California’s Sonoma County, where Blue Rock Vineyard is nestled among rolling hills, vineyards, and old olive trees. At first glance, looking out across the valley, you might think you are not in California at all, but rather in Tuscany.

Some wineries seek to impress with their size. Others with their history. And then there are those that earn respect simply by staying true to their own vision. Sonoma-Cutrer is one of them. For more than four decades, the winery has demonstrated that California Chardonnay and Pinot Noir can offer the same finesse, complexity, and sense of place as the finest wines of the Old World, while retaining the unmistakable energy and openness that define California.

The Language of Yes: Californian wine inspired by Southern France and the philosophy of “yes”

Pahlmeyer Winery is one of the most prominent names in Napa Valley. Its story begins with a bold vision: to create a wine that could rival the finest Bordeaux. Today, it embodies a unique blend of mountain terroir, meticulous work in the vineyard and cellar, and a style that combines California intensity with European elegance.

Premiere Napa Valley is not a typical wine festival for the general public. It is an exclusive professional event where winemakers, distributors, sommeliers, and journalists from around the world come together. The main goal is to showcase unique vintages of wine that are not typically sold in stores and to auction them off at a prestigious event. This event thus combines tastings, networking, and trend-setting in the world of wine.

The sun-drenched vineyards of Napa Valley, the morning fog slowly lifting between the sparse vines, and a glass of crisp Chardonnay that tells the story of the place where it comes from. It was here that a legend was born—a winery that forever changed the world’s perception of California wines—Grgich Hills Estate.
