The Napa Wine Project

About

The Napa Wine Project is researched and maintained by David Thompson. He has been a wine enthusiast for many years and in 2006 created this project. He has personally visited each physical winery (if applicable), met with a representative & tasted from nearly 600 commercial Napa wine producers reviewed on this site - plus a number of other locations that offer tasting experiences but do not make their own wine. He is responsible for all research, winery visits & revisits, winery reviews, tasting notes, photography and updates.

Dave is CEO and owner of an ISP in California, Pacific Online, Inc., whom of course conveniently hosts this website. California raised, he attended college on California's

Central Coast & while there, co-founded a collegiate Solar Racing Team which designed and built a solar car from scratch. Dave maintains a popular international travel site (since 1996), Dave's Travel Corner. He runs a website promoting currently undefeated Olympic Gold Medalist Boxer, Andre Ward and is involved with VinoVisit (a winery reservation company) and MyVideoVisa, a new online travel video promotion site.
His first book titled, "The Freeways of Los Angeles" is scheduled to be published in early 2010.
