Napa Valley wine gets new name protection

People buy a bottle of “Napa Valley” wine with certain expectations — the biggest being that the wine is actually made from Napa Valley grapes. However, in an attempt to cash in on the cache of the Napa Valley name, some unscrupulous producers try to sell “Napa Valley” wine using grapes from other areas or even countries. “Napa Valley has had its name ripped off around the world on bottles of wine that don’t really come from here,” said Rex Stults.
