Join us for an Exclusive Virtual Wine Tasting and Tour of the Boeschen Vineyards Estate
In honor of Spring – the symbol of hope and growth – we’ll be sharing our joint vision for literacy in the US and around the world – and tasting some fabulous wine.
The program will feature an exciting wine tasting with Napa Valley winery, Boeschen Vineyards, and a short presentation by British A. Robinson, President and CEO of the Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy and David Risher, Co-founder and CEO of Worldreader.
Your ticket purchase includes three world-class estate wines from Boeschen Vineyards – one of Napa Valley’s most prestigious wineries – shipped right to your home. The program will also include an exclusive virtual tour of the estate (picture a beautiful rose garden, an antique car collection, and the Boeschen cellar).
And best of all – each ticket supports the work of Worldreader and the Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy.

Your Wine Menu
Katie Rosé
Our Katie Rosé is named after Dann and Susan’s oldest granddaughter, Katherine Rose. It is a crisp and dry rosé almost always made from our estate Merlot grapes. The wine is very much fruit-driven, and features primary characters of strawberries, bright cherries, and rose petals. We drink lots of this wine in the hot summer months and during special times when the pink color adds to a festive occasion.
Estate Sauvignon Blanc
The Boeschen Vineyards Estate Sauvignon Blanc has been named by many as among the best in Napa Valley. A field-blend of three clones, the wine always shows beautiful acidity, with a delicious blend of citrus, floral and tropical notes. It’s made in our stainless steel barrels, but the rich character of the wine causes some to wonder if it’s been fermented in oak. It is a lovely, character-filled white, and we always wish we had more.
Carrera Estate Blend
The Carrera Estate Blend is highly anticipated each year by our Wine Club members who often want more of this blend than we can make. The wine gets its name from the Spanish word for “race,” a nod to Dann Boeschen’s passion for vintage car racing. It is a Bordeaux blend of estate fruit meant to reflect the best of each unique vintage, with varietal percentages varying widely each year. We pay close attention to what Mother Nature features each year, and that is what will go in this bottle. Carrera is a beautiful, integrated, delicious wine meant to drink immediately or age gracefully for many years.
