RuVango Winery, located in Napa’s scenic Carneros region, offers a unique twist on the traditional wine experience by blending fine wines with world-renowned art. Recently, the winery unveiled an impressive art collection featuring pieces by Salvador Dalí and Sir Daniel Winn, positioning itself as a destination for wine lovers and art enthusiasts alike. The blend of wine and art at RuVango creates a cultural atmosphere that distinguishes it from other wineries, offering a space where visitors can appreciate both visual artistry and the artistry of winemaking.
With a commitment to the idea that “wine is the only art you can taste,” RuVango curates an experience that engages all the senses. The winery’s tasting rooms double as galleries, showcasing original artwork that complements the flavors and complexities of the wines served. This unique approach provides guests with a new perspective on wine appreciation, creating an immersive experience that blends taste, sight, and ambiance.
Dalí’s Legacy: Surreal Art Meets Fine Wine
A highlight of RuVango’s art collection is Salvador Dalí’s rare Les Chants de Maldoror, a series of intricate etchings by the renowned surrealist. These artworks, known for their intricate details and surreal themes, provide a contemplative, almost dreamlike counterpart to the bold flavors of RuVango’s wines. The Dalí collection draws art lovers and wine enthusiasts alike, offering them a rare opportunity to engage with Dalí’s work in an intimate setting. This fusion of wine and surrealism invites guests to explore the nuances of both art forms, allowing them to consider the depths of the art on the walls and the flavors in their glass.
Modern Art by Sir Daniel Winn
RuVango’s artistic appeal doesn’t stop with Dalí; it extends into the present through the works of Sir Daniel Winn. Known for blending classical and contemporary techniques, Winn’s colorful paintings and dynamic sculptures infuse a modern flair into the winery’s aesthetic. Winn’s pieces, strategically displayed throughout the tasting areas, enhance the experience by sparking conversation and reflection, while his bold color palette and evocative forms add to the winery’s vibrant atmosphere. The interaction between the wines and Winn’s art invites guests to contemplate both, providing a space where each enhances the other.
A Fusion of Wine and Artistry
RuVango’s innovative approach to the winery experience stems from a philosophy that places equal value on wine and art. The winery curates an immersive environment that allows guests to fully appreciate the art behind winemaking, set against the backdrop of world-class art installations. At RuVango, art is not simply decoration—it is central to the winery’s identity. By blending two distinct forms of creative expression, RuVango creates a space that encourages guests to explore the artistry involved in both, making each visit a multi-sensory journey.
Exceptional Service and Setting
Under the leadership of CEO Nasar Aboubakare, RuVango takes pride in offering top-tier service in a serene, relaxing environment. Nestled amid the rolling hills of the Carneros region, the winery provides a peaceful setting for visitors to unwind and engage with the art and wine on offer. The knowledgeable staff not only guide guests through the tasting experience but also provide insights into the artwork, ensuring a meaningful visit for wine enthusiasts and art lovers alike.
Whether guests are touring the art collection or sampling wines, RuVango’s team is dedicated to offering a memorable experience. The attention to detail extends to every aspect of the visit, from personalized wine tastings to curated tours of the art installations, ensuring that each guest leaves with a deeper connection to both the wines and the artwork they’ve experienced.

Accor has signed a new Sofitel project, Sofitel Sapa Hotel & Residences, a luxury property set to debut in northern Vietnam in 2030. The development, a collaboration with Vietnam-based Alphanam Group, will combine 176 hotel rooms with 436 residences, bringing Sofitel’s signature French-inspired elegance and hospitality to the scenic Sapa region.
The signing ceremony, held at Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi, marked another milestone in Accor's expansion in Southeast Asia.

Aligned with Accor's commitment to sustainability, Sofitel Sapa Hotel & Residences will incorporate eco-friendly practices like waste reduction, energy-efficient systems, and the use of local materials to minimize its environmental footprint.
Xavier Grange, Accor’s Chief Development Officer for Sofitel, Sofitel Legend, MGallery, and Emblems, highlighted the importance of the partnership, saying, “Vietnam is one of the most sought-after destinations in Asia, and with this project, our Sofitel presence in the country is set to nearly triple in terms of rooms over the next five years. The signing of Sofitel Sapa Hotel & Residences underscores the strength and recognition of our Sofitel brand in Vietnam, as well as the value of collaborating with local partners like Alphanam Group.”
This new addition will join Accor's existing Sofitel properties in Vietnam, Sofitel Saigon Plaza and Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi, expanding the brand’s footprint in the country. The announcement follows Accor’s recent agreement to introduce the Pullman brand to Perth Airport in Australia, with an expected opening in 2027, further cementing Accor's commitment to growth in key international markets.
Sofitel, established in 1964, now operates over 120 distinctive hotels worldwide, each reflecting the brand's signature blend of French heritage and local culture. With the addition of Sofitel Sapa Hotel & Residences, Accor is set to redefine luxury hospitality in northern Vietnam, providing travelers with an elegant retreat in one of Asia’s most captivating destinations.
