Special Collections doesn’t have any secret hints for making wine (those remain with the winery), but the exhibit will show you how Mr. Mondavi rose to prominence in the wine industry and how he saw his role in promoting wine, fine food and the arts.

The unveiling and the exhibition’s opening coincide with the 100th anniversary of his birth. He was born June 18, 1913, in Virginia, Minn., and died May 16, 2008, at age 94, at his home in Napa County.

The Robert G. Mondavi Trust donated his papers ºÙºÙÊÓƵ in 2011. They are now preserved, cataloged and ready for researchers, thanks to Liz Phillips, a Special Collections archivist. Funding for this work came from the trust; Mondavi’s wife, Margrit Biever Mondavi; and supporting friends.

Gifts from Robert and Margrit led to the building of ºÙºÙÊÓƵ’ Robert and Margrit Mondavi Center for the Performing Arts, and the Robert Mondavi Institute for Wine and Food Science.
