Welcome to VINE PASS Napa Wine Passport

There’s something truly magical about Napa Valley. From the rolling vineyard-covered hills to the golden sunsets over the Mayacamas Mountains, it’s a place where time slows down, and every glass of wine tells a story.

As we officially launch the Vines of Napa VINE PASS, I couldn’t be more excited to welcome you on this journey through one of the world’s most iconic wine regions.

This isn’t just another wine pass—it’s your passport to a curated selection of Napa’s hidden gems: boutique, family-owned wineries that produce extraordinary wines and offer the kind of warm, personal hospitality you simply won’t find at the larger estates.

As a Certified Sommelier, I've spent countless hours tasting, exploring, and connecting with winemakers throughout Napa. I’ve walked the vineyards, stood in the cellars, and heard the stories of families who’ve poured their hearts into every vintage. And from those experiences, I’ve carefully chosen a group of exceptional wineries that represent the very best Napa has to offer—each one distinct, passionate, and deeply rooted in the land.

With your VINE PASS in hand, you’ll gain access to these remarkable wineries, many of which are tucked away off the beaten path. These are the kinds of places where the winemaker might be the one pouring your tasting, where there’s time for conversation, and where every visit feels like discovering a secret worth sharing.

Whether this is your first visit to Napa or your fiftieth, I encourage you to take your time. Wander through the vineyards, linger over a tasting flight, and let the landscape and the stories behind the wine move you. The VINE PASS is your invitation to explore at your own pace and connect with the heart and soul of Napa Valley.

I created VINE PASS because I believe wine is more than just a beverage—it’s an experience. And Napa, with its incredible diversity of terroirs, varietals, and people, is the perfect place to experience it all.

So here’s to great wine, unforgettable moments, and the joy of discovery. Just like I did, I hope you fall in love with all that Napa has to offer.

Cheers,
