Robert Mondavi Concert Series back for 43rd Year
Mark you calendars and select which of the Robert Mondavi concerts to attend this summer. These are always festive events, especially when you attend with a group of friends. The concert series at Robert Mondavi is one of the highlights of the summer season in the Napa Valley. The concert series brings together wine, food, music and the arts for beautiful evenings in the vineyards. The concerts run on Saturday evenings beginning June 30 and ending on July 21. Ticket prices vary by performance, with proceeds from this year’s series benefitting the Napa Valley Unified School District. Ticket and additional information.


Electric car charging stations
A few forward-thinking wineries in the Napa Valley have installed electric car charging stations. Imagine driving up to a winery in your electric car and recharging your car while you recharge your palate with a taste of some of Napa Valley’s famous wines. At the moment we know that these wineries have electric car charging stations: Jarvis Winery, Cade Winery, Hall, and Clif Family Winery.

St. Supery Free Outdoor Concert
In honor of St. Supery’s French heritage, the winery is planning a special event for Sunday, April 29, 1 to 4pm. It will be an afternoon filled with French jazz, French food, and St. Supery’s estate-grown Bordeaux wine varietals. The concert will feature the Ronchin Jazz Band. The concert is free but you must RSVP. More information.

Costco Documentary
Many Costco stores in the Bay Area feature Napa Valley wines at amazing discounts. Do you ever wonder how Costco can sell their wines for much less than you can find them at the winery? Well, then, tune in to CNBC News for the original documentary: “The Costco Craze: Inside the Warehouse Giant.” The program premieres Thursday, April 26th at 9pm et/pt on CNBC. More information
