Vintage Report Napa Valley 2015
For the 6th year in the beautiful Napa Valley, the Vintage Report Conference returned to bring the most innovative and scientific minds together to discuss the most recent vintage. With local plant data at the focal point of discussion, the Vintage Report Conference aimed at dissecting and explaining the past vintage by looking at the impact on plant and fruit. Presentations on climatic and physiological data throughout the day facilitated discussion among this incredible community of vineyard managers, winemakers, and scientists. Through this conference we created a unique experience for all by showcasing the incredible innovation and scientific discovery in the fields of viticulture and enology.

Returning for the second year to the Central Coast, the Vintage Report hosted winemakers, vineyard managers and top scientists from the greater Paso Robles region who are leading the way in leveraging scientific ideas and innovation. How can the highest quality grapes be grown while preserving precious resources in a region affected by intense heat waves and water scarcity? What physiological links exist between climate, plant and fruit? These are the types of information filled discussions the Vintage Report is renowned for.
