To round out our series on Women in Agriculture, Ecology, Farming, and Climate Activism for Women's History Month, we raise a glass to Ms. Victoria Coleman, Napa's first Black woman winemaker.
Since we couldn't get an interview from this busy and sought-after enologist, we borrow an excerpt from an excellent article featured in this week's Napa Valley Register by Sam Jones.
🍇🍇🍇
"Victoria Coleman has worked under esteemed winemakers, including Michael Silacci and Mario Bazán, has interned at Château Mouton Rothschild in France, and has now even added a Chinese brand to her portfolio.
In her current gig at Lobo Wines, she is the face of The Caves at Soda Canyon and has multiple vineyards she pulls fruit from.
'I was most comfortable in the vineyard,' she said. 'I was at Stag’s Leap Cellars as a production assistant to Michael Silacci before he went to Opus One, and he is very viticulturally-oriented, so even though I was going through tastings and blending trials, and things like that, I was primarily in the vineyard.'"

In the small Black Belt town of Gainesville, Ala., Stephanie Mitchell is renovating an 187-year-old antebellum home, which she plans to open as Alabama’s first freestanding birth center. 🤰 Alabama is one of a few states that doesn’t have any birth centers.
“It never crossed my mind not to do it,” she said. “I’m not going to wait for somebody else. I am somebody else.”
