Haute Living thinks the best way to start the New Year is to announce our 2014 Haute 100 List. Our compilation cover features our picks for the 100 most influential movers and shakers in the Bay Area – the billionaires, philanthropists, commanders, entrepreneurs and innovators who have made a significant impact on our world today.

In this issue, we sit down with Jean-Charles Boisset, the Burgundy-born proprietor of Boisset Family Estates, who has turned the Napa Valley scene on its head with his flamboyant style and innovative ideas. He lets us in on never-before-seen experiences to come at Raymond Winery as well as what’s new for his own JCB brand. We have also featured power philanthropist Dede Wilsey, who talks about her passion for the arts and her secret to shaking down the billionaires for big donations, and Jennifer Puccio, the triple-threat Executive Chef and partner of three of the hautest restaurants in San Francisco: Marlowe, Park Tavern and The Cavalier.
