KANPAI WINE

Booth No: Q217

Exhibitor Profile

At the heart of California’s Napa Valley, KANPAI WINES rises as a boutique estate of unmistakable boldness. Inspired by the Japanese word for “cheers”, this brand does not merely produce wine—it transforms it into a declaration of excellence and a toast to life’s most deliberate moments.

Situated in the prestigious Oak Knoll District, KANPAI WINES stands on estate land once known for supplying some of Napa’s most revered producers. With production limited to about 2,000 cases per year, every bottle is rare, every pour a privilege. This scarcity is intentional—not luxury for its own sake, but a testament to the uncompromising pursuit of terroir-driven refinement.

Led by award-winning winemaker Steve Matthiasson, the estate practices organic farming, precision viticulture, and handcrafted barrel ageing to sculpt wines that command attention. From the philosophy of “finding balance in winemaking, farming, or even in life,” the brand embodies a vision where craft meets conviction.

Events hosted by KANPAI transcend ordinary tastings—they are curated experiences of presence and power. Guests stand shoulder to shoulder with the founders, the vintner, and fellow connoisseurs, united by one pursuit: excellence. From the first Rosé, created to commemorate resilience after the 2017 fires, to the flagship Estate Cabernet Sauvignon from Meadowbrook Farm, every expression carries purpose and precision.

KANPAI’s ethos is simple yet commanding: you enter the venue, hold a glass that reflects sun-soaked slopes, ancient soils, and mindful craft. You listen to the winemaker speak of site-specific blocks, taste a wine that is not just fruit or oak but intention distilled. You lift your glass and declare—I choose excellence. This is not ambience. This is statement.

The brand positioning demands attention: wine is no longer a backdrop—it is a centerpiece. It is identity. It is a pact. To align with KANPAI WINES is to align with the elite—the few who see wine not merely as pleasure, but as heritage; not just flavor, but legacy.

In a world crowded with options, KANPAI cuts through the noise. It declares: Power in the glass. Presence in the moment. This is a vintage that defies time, a label that commands space. With every pour, you don’t just taste history—you make it.

For collectors, ambassadors of taste, and those whose toasts matter, KANPAI WINES offers not merely bottles but icons. The next time you reach for a wine that says “Not just any bottle”, reach for KANPAI. Taste with intention. Toast with power. And above all—cheers to the extraordinary.
