Napa Valley Wine Academy Names Small Lot Bottles Exclusive Retail Partner for Student Wine Kits

Napa Valley Wine Academy (NVWA) and Small Lot Bottles are pleased to announce an update to the purchasing experience for NVWA wine kits.

Beginning February 2, all wine kits used to support Napa Valley Wine Academy students throughout their coursework will be available exclusively through Small Lot Bottles’ website, creating a more streamlined and specialized purchasing experience. Small Lot Bottles, which has served as NVWA’s preferred wine kit supplier for the past four years, will now act as the dedicated retail destination for these kits, while Napa Valley Wine Academy remains the sole provider of course enrollment and wine education.

Students will continue to register for their courses directly on the NVWA’s website, and upon enrollment, will be directed to Small Lot Bottles to purchase the required wine kits.

This update allows each brand to focus on its core expertise—Napa Valley Wine Academy delivering world-class wine education, and Small Lot Bottles curating and fulfilling premium wine kits—while providing students worldwide with a smoother, more cohesive, and cost-efficient purchasing experience.
