About the Chronicle
The Napa Chronicle is an online newspaper for the cultural life of Napa, California: its people, wine culture, history, arts and stage, community, and opinion. Our lane is features and analysis, the life of the place, reported with patience and written to last.
We are a publication of Tribune Publications. The Chronicle is one of the company's California titles, alongside the Napa Tribune's city news coverage and the Napa Valley Tribune's valley-wide record. Each title keeps its own lane; this one belongs to Napa after hours.
Our standards are simple and non-negotiable: no invented facts, no fabricated quotes, no statistics we cannot source, no visits we did not make. Every feature names its sources. When we err, we correct in the open under our corrections policy.
The Chronicle's newsroom works from Napa. Reach the newsroom through our contact form. Send news tips through our contact form and choose News tip.
