NVWS winemakers are usually always employed by various wineries in the Napa or Sonoma wine country, and use the NVWS as a stepping stone to create their own label or winery.

The NVWS share winery overhead costs and are supported exclusively by Expedition "constituents" throughout the world who subscribe to NVWS quarterly allotments. Constituent Terms & Conditions The NVWS provides a unique economic ability for Napa Valley wine country winemakers to produce and offer their own wines at a fraction of the cost of capitalizing a traditional winery. NVWS also enjoy an ongoing and loyal following throughout the world via the Expedition "constituents" who commit to the unknown, but unique quarterly offerings, and enjoy highly limited NVWS offerings.

Some of the NVWS offerings have been highly praised and are expected to develop into "cult" status. That is, the offerings by design are highly limited, and after market prices have reached in the hundreds of dollars per bottle. Expedition: napa red wine
