ABOUT NAPA IN NEWPORT

Napa in Newport brings some of the most acclaimed Napa Valley vintners together under one roof to serve their finest vintages and offer their best wine experiences to Orange County’s top business leaders, influencers, entrepreneurs, philanthropists and wine connoisseurs.

Napa in Newport features a Grand Tasting, vintner hosted dining tables, an exquisite dinner with curated wine pairings by a celebrity chef and spectacular auction lots – all to benefit CureDuchenne, a leading nonprofit organization whose mission is to cure Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

Duchenne is one of the most common and severe forms of muscular dystrophy. It affects roughly 1 in 5,000 male births but sometimes affects females as well. In all cases, Duchenne is caused by mutations in the gene encoding for dystrophin, a protein muscles need to work properly. It is 100% fatal.

MORE TO BE ADDED

2025 VINTNER CHAIR

In St. Helena, the heart of the Napa Valley, Luc and Jodie Morlet handcraft vins de terroir and unique cuvées from the surrounding Napa Valley and Sonoma Coast. Meticulously farmed vineyards and low-intervention winemaking techniques produce powerful yet refined wines displaying personality, complexity and graceful aging capability. By taking Old World principles and adapting them to California, the Morlet style results in wines which are harmonious in their intensity, richness and refinement. Unwavering commitment to quality leads to small yields, attentive sorting, and the highest standard when blending. Thus, a very limited amount of each wine is produced.
