As with any business, the future holds both threats and opportunities. The wine industry faces potential challenges in the state of the economy, climate change leading to potential water shortages, a generation of new wine drinkers with different tastes, and the usual viruses and bugs.

But at an innovative enterprise like Stagecoach, the opportunities always outweigh the challenges. We see great potential in the area of education, such as sommelier summits, and in Stagecoach’s growth as a luxury brand. We plan to expand our hospitality program with new facilities for customers and visitors, and to host more social events at the vineyard, including rides in our beautifully restored original stagecoach.

Just as we are proud of our history and achievements, we are very excited about the future.
