Interest in Kardashians’ favourite Napa winery surges after featuring on show
Though long-lived reality show ‘Keeping up with the Kardashians’ has finally stopped filming after 20 seasons, a Napa winery that featured on the program has enjoyed a huge surge in interest.
Door-to-door luggage service My Baggage has put together research revealing that demand for stays in Napa Valley is up by a huge 49%, due to what it’s calling the “Kardashian effect”.
Per a press release, Del Dotto Vineyards has become a favourite for America’s most famous family, and the winery has seen a considerable uptick in interest since featuring on the show in April.
Searches for the winery increased 46% compared to last year after an episode of Keeping up with the Kardashians was filmed at the location, according to My Baggage.
