History
In September 2008 we became the first teaching winery located on a California community college campus to be bonded to produce and sell wine.
Specialties
The operation of the winery is fully integrated into the Viticulture & Winery Technology (VWT) Instructional Program at Napa Valley College. All of the wines produced are made from grapes grown on our six-acre vineyard which is located in the world famous Napa Valley AVA. Each aspect of the wine production process is completed by VWT students under the supervision of our award-winning instructors. The program includes courses in Viticulture, Winemaking and Marketing/Sales. NVC Estate Winery is a non-profit business whose proceeds goes back into the VWT program. Your purchase of our product will not only give you the chance to enjoy some amazing wine, but will also directly assist in furthering the education of students who represent the future of our thriving wine industry. Proceeds from sales help our winery to acquire the equipment and materials that are necessary to make great wines and great winemakers.
