Project Overview•
Smith Devereux, a Napa Valley winery built on authenticity and connection, partnered with us to produce a series of cinematic videos: the Vineyard Tour, Brandy Release, and Single Vineyard Merlot.
Together, we captured their approachable, down-to-earth spirit, highlighting storytelling, artistry, and the deep bond between land, wine, and community.
Business Challenge
- Break away from intimidating, exclusive wine branding to create an approachable, accessible experience.
- Showcase Smith Devereux’s unique single-vineyard philosophy in a way that resonates with casual and millennial drinkers.
- Elevate brand storytelling to emphasize authenticity, passion, and community.
- Differentiate their Brandy and Merlot releases in a crowded Napa Valley market.
Our Approach
We developed a storytelling-first video strategy, focusing on authenticity, connection, and artistry. Our team combined vineyard-to-bottle education with intimate, lifestyle-driven visuals to break barriers in wine communication. By blending cinematic beauty, personal narratives, and music, we helped position Smith Devereux as approachable yet premium, inviting consumers to join the story.

Ian Devereux, Founder & Vintner at Smith Devereux Winery, on bringing his story to life with Pour Agency.
“The obstacles in the past that stopped me from using video were that I felt it would be too difficult, too much of a production. Working with Pour Agency, they put everything together for me step by step.”
