Partnerships
Few partners.
Chosen carefully.
A small number of estates, hotels, and brands each year — never more.
Napa Curator partners with a small number of estates, hotels, and brands each year. Our readers plan their lives around Napa Valley — and they trust what we put in front of them.
The audience
Napa Valley draws 3.7 million visitors a year and $2.5 billion in annual spending. Luxury rates average $947 a night; the overnight guest spends $771 a day. Our readers don’t browse the valley — they book it.
Sponsored features
Native editorial features, written to our standard and clearly disclosed. Estates, openings, and experiences that belong in the journal.
Annual partnerships
Category presence across the journal, Instagram, and the newsletter — for brands building a long-term position in Napa Valley.
Experiences & events
Private tastings, balloon ascents, culinary residencies, drivers and itineraries — the experience economy is where the valley is heading, and where our readers spend.
Brand campaigns
Seasonal collaborations with luxury houses — automotive, timepieces, fashion, spirits — staged against the valley at its best.
Verified reviews
Our rolling review program — no quotas, no deadlines. Estates, tables, and experiences may request a verification visit: choose “Verified review” in the enquiry form below. Every review is conducted in person; review terms are shared on enquiry. Consideration only — never placement, never the seal.
The Napa Curator 50 — 2027
Our annual ranked list of the valley’s essential estates, tables, and experiences, drawn from verified businesses. The first edition publishes in 2027.
We accept a limited number of partnerships so the publication never becomes the advertising. Rates are shared privately in our media kit — every engagement is scoped individually.
Questions, answered
How many partners do you accept?
A small number each year — deliberately. The publication must never become the advertising.
How are rates set?
Rates are shared privately in our media kit, and every engagement is scoped individually.
Is sponsored content disclosed?
Always — on the feature itself, plainly.
Can a partner buy the Verified seal or a ranking?
No. The seal is earned through an in-person verification visit and is never for sale; nothing editorial is.
Do you accept hosted visits?
Yes — and they are always disclosed on the feature. “Stay hosted by the property. Opinions are our own.”
How quickly do you respond?
Within two business days.
