Nobody kicks off July 4th weekend better than Robert Mondavi Winery, one of Napa Valley’s legendary wineries, with the start of their annual summer music concert series in the month of July. “This year’s lineup presents artists that are excellent musicians in their genre,” noted Margrit Mondavi(late wife of Robert Mondavi), who founded the concert series in 1969. “Robert’s belief that we could make wines that stand in the company of the world’s finest, leads us to select artists who stand in the company of the world’s greatest. We are so excited to start with Gavin this year.”
