Welcome to the Napa Valley Hospitality Forum!

The NVHF is the leading trade organization for wine professionals in the Napa Valley. With over 135 wineries in membership, we offer a vibrant community that represents a true cross-section of the Napa wine industry. Our monthly meetings provide a platform for learning, networking, and fostering DTC growth. Our meetings encourage open and lively debate and discussion.

The NVHF is a volunteer-led organization. We operate on a $0 budget and do not charge any membership dues.
