“Intentus” comes from the Latin for intention and purpose — the two principles that guide everything we do.
Intentus was founded on the belief that the most meaningful wines carry more than flavor — they carry purpose.
Crafted by Napa Valley winemaker and volunteer firefighter Alan Viader, Intentus brings together precision, place, and service in every bottle.
Each wine is thoughtfully sourced from exceptional vineyards throughout California and produced in limited quantities with an unwavering commitment to balance, character, and authenticity.
The name Intentus reflects a way of life: to live deliberately, serve generously, and create with intention.
From long nights at the firehouse to early mornings in the vineyard, Intentus is rooted in the idea that great wines are not rushed. They are earned through patience, discipline, and care.
These are wines meant to gather people around a table, mark meaningful moments, and leave a lasting impression long after the final glass.
Handcrafted wines made with intention. Handcrafted wines made with purpose.
Intentus was born not only from a desire to make great wine, but from a commitment to give back—to honor the everyday heroes who step forward when others cannot. At the heart of Intentus is a mission-driven winery devoted to meaningful charitable giving that supports First Responders and the communities they protect. Each bottle represents both craftsmanship and contribution.
We invite you to share in this mission.
