The relationship between the sister cities is recognized as an integral part of strengthening Napa Valley’s leadership as a wine-producing region. The partnership will foster global understanding by promoting technical, educational, economic and cultural exchanges on an ongoing, long-term basis”, the note explains. “Napa and Montalcino will work to develop fruitful relationships between their respective people and communities and build partnerships that shape the economic and geographic aspects of a world-class wine region”.
