  Vintner's Collective: About us - Vintner's Collective
Vintner's Collective is the first of it's kind in Napa Valley, a multi-winery tasting room that is home to twenty of the most experienced and talented winemakers in the Valley.
The man behind Vintner's Collective is Garret Murphy, who dreamed of creating a place where wine lovers could taste the wines of some of the best winemakers in Napa Valley, and where smaller wineries without their own tasting room could showcase their wines and introduce them to consumers.
We are proud to work with the wonderful vintners showcased at Vintner's Collective, who are a wonderful group of people in addition to being wonderful winemakers.

  Vintner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term vintner is applied to wine merchants as well as (erroneously) winemakers.
Wine merchants buy and sell wine, while winemakers, sometimes also known as oenologists, produce wine or supervise the production of wine.
Today, these duties require an increasing amount of scientific knowledge, since laboratory tests are gradually supplementing or replacing traditional methods.

 [No title]
Country Vintner made no effort to comply with the demands set forth in the letter and instead initiated a complaint with the ABC Board alleging that the proposed termination was without "good cause" as required by Code § 4.1-406 of the Virginia Wine Franchise Act.
Country Vintner's failure to distribute to a large percentage of the offpremises retail market in northern Virginia was due to its conscious decision to ignore the large retail grocery stores in the northern Virginia region and to focus its distribution on gourmet restaurants, discount houses, and club stores.
Country Vintner further contends the requirement to serve specific outlets is inconsistent with one of the Act's purposes, viz., to prevent suppliers from dominating local markets through vertical integration by maintaining a three-tier system for wine distribution in which the independence of wineries, distributors and retailers is preserved.

 SignOnSanDiego.com > News > State -- Two Buck Chuck vintner brings out a $4 Napa version
Central California vintner Fred Franzia, who has been fighting a state law requiring that wines with "Napa" on the label be made from grapes grown in that exclusive region, is releasing two new wines under his Napa Creek label, both going for $3.99 a bottle.
Vintners also have to keep at least three years worth of inventory on hand, often in expensive oak barrels.
Franzia's fight with Napa revolves around a California law, staunchly supported by valley vintners, requiring that wines with "Napa" on the label be made with Napa grapes.

 Gang of Pour - Carolyn Tillie
Upon entering Vintner's Collective, you are greeted by warm, welcoming pourers, a variety of stunning and intriguing artwork, and a tasting area that showcases the wines available.
It was magical and upon moving to Napa, I immediately sought out this elegant, fruit-forward wine only to discover they were too small to warrant their own tasting room.
Vintner's Collective is a great find and well worth the hunt to discover many of the excellent up-and-coming wineries in the Napa Valley.

 USATODAY.com - Vintner squeezes prices as well as grapes   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
An enormously successful California vintner, Franzia has been fighting against Napa winemakers — so far unsuccessfully — over a state law requiring that wines with the word "Napa" on the label be made from grapes grown in that region.
Napa vintners argue that putting the "Napa" name on wine made with cheaper grapes grown elsewhere in the state undermines their image and undercuts work building the valley's reputation.
With land and grape prices so high in Napa, along with the capital-intensive nature of the business, "There's a good reason why there's that popular quote: 'The way to make a small fortune in the wine business is to lose a big one,' " she says.

 Top court to settle Napa grape fight / Stanislaus County vintner challenged labeling standards
The law was challenged by Bronco Wine Co., which is based in the Stanislaus County town of Ceres and which owns the Napa Ridge and Napa Creek Winery brands, as well as Rutherford Vintners, named for a Napa County wine district.
Because its grapes do not come from Napa County, Bronco is violating the state law, but a state appellate court in Sacramento ruled in December that the law interferes with federal regulations and cannot be enforced.
Richard Mendelson, a lawyer for the Napa Valley Vintners, said Thursday that the court would protect consumers if it upheld the state law.
