Announcing Vinous Napa Valley Vineyard Maps

Today I am thrilled to announce our latest project. For the last few years, we have been hard at work on a set of maps that show the vineyards of Napa Valley in unparalleled detail, parcel by parcel and owner by owner, like never before. The day has finally come to share that work with you.

Vinous Maps are the result of six years of visiting Napa Valley and observing the land with the goal of better understanding how the characteristics of each site are ultimately reflected in the glass. Created through extensive proprietary research and boots-on-the-ground work, Vinous’ Napa Valley Maps represent the state of the art in modern cartography.

Renowned wine critic and cartographer Alessandro Masnaghetti joins Vinous as a key member of our maps team. Italian wine lovers will recognize Alessandro as the author of the most comprehensive maps and books available on the vineyards of Barolo, Barbaresco and many other regions. Alessandro’s work has been featured in numerous publications, including The Wine Spectator, Jancis Robinson’s Purple Pages, Wine & Spirits and Vinous. We are delighted to call Alessandro an esteemed colleague and friend.
