California produces a number of America’s – as well as the worlds – favorite wines. The Napa and Sonoma Valleys specifically are home to hundreds of vineyards that draw visitors from all around the globe. Should you be a boutique winemaker, or seriously considering becoming one, then winery insurance may play a significant role in your business.
Every vineyard naturally is at risk to the elements. With vines subject to the whims of nature, crop insurance may provide a valuable safeguard. It’s possible to insure farm equipment and machinery including wine-making materials, vats and drums. Should you have an open cellar door, you’ll need to budget to insure the building, contents and include liability insurance to cover any mishaps affecting customers or visitors to the property. Liability is crucial for anyone who serves food and wine, and there are also specialist policies to protect you if customers suffer from food poisoning. Insurance products can offer coverage for outdoor signs, the breakdown of equipment and even for landscaping.

1. Always taste before you buy. Don’t get trapped buying what your friends or critics call the best. Trust your own palate. Taste a bottle before you buy six bottles or a case.
2. Diversify your collection. You may have passions for one kind of wine or another, but variety is the spice of life with wine, so shop around for different styles of wine.
3. Shop for values. Go out of your way to look for best buys to get the most mileage out of your wine dollar.
4. Drink your wines before they get too old. Even the most age-worthy reds from Bordeaux or California reach drinkability in 10 years. You’ve paid good money for your wines; don’t let them slide over the hill.

Devising a buying strategy can be as simple as choosing a few brands you like and sticking with them, or as complex as collecting verticals (different vintages from the same producer) of the world’s greatest wines or buying wine futures.
For many wine drinkers, maintaining brand loyalty is a tried-and-true way to keep a cellar stocked with reliable wines that suit their taste and budget. More daring collectors expand their hobby of wine collecting into a more sophisticated enterprise: They keep tabs on new wines and vintages from old-guard producers in Bordeaux, Burgundy, Italy, Spain or Germany, and a watchful eye on up-and-coming producers from the New World, such as California, Oregon, Washington, Australia, New Zealand and Chile.
