Whats New with Entrepreneur Wines
In April 2018, we held a very successful combined Entrepreneur Wines release event with a Gratitude “thank you” event for all of our Ambassadors and Corporate backers. The event was held at the Candy Store, a unique auto museum in San Mateo. Our club members mixed it up while viewing million dollar antique automobiles and drinking our new 2016 Baciagalupi Chardonnay!
We had several Gratitude speakers that day, including Olenka Villarreal, CEO of Magical Bridge, and Sergio Medina, CEO of RISE. Both speakers talked about the work their organizations are doing to help handicapped or underprivileged children here in the US and abroad.

Best comment of the night: “Given the details of the event, it’s hard to believe this event is the FIRST time Gratitude Network has thrown one of these!“
Nearly 70 Wine Club members and their guests joined us for our 2017 Barrel Tasting event at our production facility at ElevenEleven, off Trancas Road in Napa city. This year, ElevenEleven opened up a new (much larger) facility, complete with spacious barrel tasting area, tasting rooms, and an outdoor deck in the back facing north into the Napa Valley mountain ranges – just beautiful!
