Declare Your Vindependence
Help spark a movement for balanced, drinkable wines.

Are you tired of wines that taste so oaky you feel as though you were better off chewing on the cork? Or wines that are so high in alcohol that just one glass makes you act like you’re back in your old frat house? Are you tired of being told that these are the types of wines you should like--even when you don’t?

For four decades, the folks at Clos Du Val in Napa’s famed Stags Leap District have stood up for what they believe in: They refuse to succumb to passing trends and remain dedicated to crafting wines that are balanced, elegant and--most importantly--taste like they should. If you wish every winery would show such courage, click here to join the movement.

Call it a Declaration of Vindependence. It’s your chance to stand up for your rights as a wine drinker, and never allow others to influence your own taste buds.

Go ahead, take a stand. Put your John Hancock on the Declaration today.
