Announcing 2020 Napa Institute Virtual Conference
We are excited to announce that registration is now open for our Virtual Napa Institute Conference, “Finding Hope in the New America” which will be held August 14-15, 2020.
Cardinal Pell, Bishop Barron, Arthur Brooks, Robby George and many others will provide inspiring spiritual keynote sessions.
The Napa Institute Summer Conference has made a name for itself as the premier event for those who want to keep Catholic thought relevant in the culture. The conference is truly an experience like no other — Beautiful liturgies, world-renowned Catholic speakers, great friends who have become like family, plus Napa Valley wine and food.
This year, the conference will take place August 14 & 15 as an online event.
Far from being a slimmed-down version of a regular event, we have expanded our speaker line-up to allow for more content on urgent issues of Faith and Culture that we are facing today. The Virtual Conference will feature talks and live sessions from:
Cardinal George Pell
Arthur Brooks
Bishop Barron
Scott Hahn
Robert. P George
George Weigel
Ryan Anderson
Carter Snead
Matt Fradd
Fr. John Riccardo
Ross Douthat
Fr. Michael Gaitley
Fr. Robert Spitzer, S.J.
Bob Woodson
Catherine Pakaluk
Trent Horn
Fran Maier
Louis Brown
and more to be announced!
In addition to the talks, we will also be uniting with our fellow Catholics from all across the country for livestreamed Masses, Rosaries, and prayer. August 15 is the Feast of the Assumption, which makes it the perfect time to ask Our Lady to guide our next decade of preparing Catholics to face the cultural and spiritual challenges of the “Next America.”
We hope you will join us for this Virtual 10th Napa Institute Conference. Thank you for your consideration, your support, and your prayers. Know that you are in ours.

This is your chance to put your taste buds to the test to learn firsthand just how much stemware matters. This tasting will be led by Trinitas Cellars Proprietor, Garrett Busch, along with Riedel Ambassador, Susan Durbrow. Garrett will educate guests about the featured wines, as Susan explains how each glass uniquely accentuates their aromatics and flavor. From novices, to the most seasoned connoisseurs, this seminar is not to be missed!

During this tasting, you will taste firsthand how each year's unique weather shapes the flavor of wine by trying our 2014, 2015, and 2016 Cabernet Francis, alongside our Proprietor Garrett Busch. As you likely know, our Cabernet Francis is made in honor of Pope Francis. The family has been sending him a steady supply ever since they presented him the inaugural 2012 vintage in 2013. A special Napa Institute guest will also join the tasting!
