Sunday, November 5 was a special opportunity to come together and express appreciation for the firefighters, police, EMTs, hospital staff and other emergency workers who served Wine Country during the epic wildfires, saving lives, homes and property. Three-time Grammy award winner Ozomatli headlined the celebratory concert, and The Silverado Pickups, Morris LeGrande and Cosmos Percussion Orchestra also performed. This was followed by a chef’s picnic hosted by Boisset Collection and featuring Honoris, a limited edition benefit wine of Napa and Sonoma Cabernet Sauvignon created to honor first responders and the communities affected by the fires. Wine served by vintner members of Festival Napa Valley's Board of Directors were also be featured at this community event.
