- Featured Article: Napa Valley Wineries
- The Napa Valley wasn't always a vintner's enclave. The Wappo
Indians inhabited the region 4,000 years before the Spaniards
arrived.
Mexico eventually gained its independence from this European
power and assumed control of the whole of California. In 1831,
George Yount, the first American settler in the Napa Valley,
arrived, and it was he who planted the first grapevines. These
original plantings were from Mexico, and it wasn't until 1860
that the higher grade European grapes were introduced. The Gold
Rush came and went, and in its wake it left a demand for the
Valley's wine. The demand was greater than a Pacific tsunami, and by
1891 there were over 600 vineyards in the valley serving the needs
of a thirsty population. Today, there are more than 250 wineries in
the area, turning out marvelous wines.
