Delia Viader, founding owner/winemaker of VIADER, Napa Valley, has been selected as a presenter on Cabernet Franc production in the United States for “The Rome International Focus Conference on Cabernet Franc,” the featured topic of the Merano International WineFestival (MIWF) taking place February 12-14, 2010 in Rome, Italy.

Hold on to your fedoras and feather boas and step back into the "Roaring Twenties" as we showcase our Premiere Napa Valley 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon barrel selection. This wine represents the 20th harvest at the VIADER estate. Twenty (20) cases of this unique barrel of Cabernet Sauvignon will be donated to Premiere Napa Valley's annual industry wine auction, where owners of restaurants, retail outlets, or distributorships will bid on wines created especially for this event. Current release wines will also be featured.
Although this is a trade-focused event, we are extending the opportunity to the general public. No cost to attend.
