Jarvis Estate Installs Electric Car Charging Station


JARVIS ESTATE installs new Electric Vehicle Charging Station adding to its "Green" practices.

     Add Jarvis to the Napa Valley stations for electric car charging. The new charging station, offering both 220 and 110 charging options is free for all visitors to the winery. It is run completely off Jarvis's solar panels that are hidden in the hills alongside the winery. The charging station is located in the parking meadow with unobstructed views of the natural beauty of the property.
     Jarvis Estate Winery often referred to as the "original cave winery" in California, is completely underground. Most wineries build caves just for wine storage but here at Jarvis the entire winemaking facility is underground.; fermentation tanks, wine storage and even the administrative offices. An underground waterfall and stream keep the moisture in the cave which is great for barrel storage.

   Green has not replaced red or white as the most important color in deciding which wines to buy, but our wine friends have started to think about the color green. Words like bio-dynamics, natural and sustainable are increasingly resonating with consumers, not just because they are only concerned about health and the environment, but because they believe these green methods make better wine.

 

   Jarvis is certified "Green". The Jarvis program, administered by the California Land Stewardship Institute has the right to use both the "Napa Green Certified" and "Fish Friendly Farming Environmental Certification" logos. Jarvis Estate Winery is always looking for more way to protect the environment and lead the way in "eco-friendly" practices. So, stop by, charge-up and enjoy some remarkable Napa Valley wines!
