About the event
Pioneers in the Napa Valley, the Trefethen family are champions of estate grown wines. For three generations, they have carefully tended to their land, employees, and customers, building a loyal following for their legacy of fine, age-worthy wines with a deep integrity of place.
We are so excited to have Lorenzo Trefethen, third generation winemaker, from Trefethen Family Vineyards come visit us and share his love of wine!!
Full of creative energy and known for his infectious laugh, Lorenzo believes in the power of wine to bring people together. Growing up, the family table was often full of interesting visitors to the Napa Valley, and as an undergraduate at Stanford, he took over instruction of the French Department’s wine tasting course.
These early experiences of uniting people around wine inspired Lorenzo to make a life in the family business. Curious and gregarious, he connects the winery with new audiences and ideas from outside the world of wine. Together with his sister Hailey, Lorenzo represents the next generation of the Trefethen family, passionate to uphold a legacy of world-class estate grown wines.
