Our Mission
Napa Tribune exists to keep residents, business owners, and visitors informed about the issues that shape one of the world's most storied wine regions. From city hall to the harvest floor, from Calistoga to American Canyon, we cover the valley with the depth and independence it deserves.
What We Cover
Our editorial focus spans the full breadth of life in Napa Valley and beyond: local government and Napa County policy, the wine industry and grape harvest, real estate and development, dining and hospitality, arts and culture, crime and public safety, and regional Bay Area news that affects valley residents.
We aggregate and curate reporting from trusted regional and national outlets including the Napa Valley Register, NBC Bay Area, ABC7 News, SFGate, the Mercury News, Wine Business Monthly, Wine Enthusiast, Biz New Orleans, OffBeat Magazine, and others. All articles link directly to the original source.
Our Principles
We are committed to accuracy, fairness, and transparency. Napa Tribune does not accept payment for editorial coverage. We do not publish sponsored content masquerading as news. Our editorial decisions are made independently and are not influenced by advertisers, political actors, or outside interests.
Serving Wine Country
Napa Valley is home to more than 140,000 residents and one of the most recognized wine appellations on earth. It is also a community with real challenges — housing affordability, wildfire risk, water rights, traffic, and the ongoing tension between agricultural heritage and rapid tourism growth. Napa Tribune covers all of it, without favor and without flinching.
Whether you're a longtime resident of the Oak Knoll District, a winemaker in Rutherford, a newcomer to American Canyon, or a visitor exploring the valley for the first time, Napa Tribune is your paper of record.
