Napa’s First Combined Community Wine Bar and Members Club Offers Rare Access to The Valley’s Top Wines Under One Roof
YOUNTVILLE, Calif. (November 9, 2026) – Wine industry leader and founder of Inspire Napa Valley, Kerrin Laz, is excited to announce the opening of Vintners Social Club by K. LAZ in Napa Valley’s Yountville. Inspired by the convivial wine bars and private clubs found throughout Europe, Vintners Social Club (VSC) combines the benefits of a private members club with the comfortable hospitality of a public wine bar.
Located in the historic Yountville Station complex, VSC is designed to be a central gathering place for those who live in, work in, and love Napa Valley, as well as a home base for members when visiting—a place to stop in for a glass of wine, meet friends, entertain family and guests, enjoy thoughtful cuisine from VSC’s provisions menu, or attend special events and gatherings throughout the year. With casual walk-in service available alongside members-only benefits including wine storage, specialty allocations, and exclusive events, VSC brings together exceptional wines and access to people and experiences rarely available elsewhere.
“At the center of Vintners Social Club is a simple philosophy: in the region where these wines are grown, they should be enjoyed at their most reasonable prices,” says founder Kerrin Laz. “I want someone to be able to sit at the bar and taste several great wines, discover a grower they’ve never heard of or experience an older vintage they might never otherwise open. It isn’t simply about making wine less expensive; it’s about encouraging exploration.”
VSC is Laz’s next career move: VSC brings the best of California wine country together in a single location, including wineries, esteemed chefs, hotel partners, artists, farmers, and more. As a result, VSC is becoming a central hub where Many of Napa Valley’s leading vintners and growers are VSC members themselves, alongside people doing great things throughout the wine and hospitality industries and the broader community that supports them. My hope is for VSC to become a central hub where those worlds naturally come together—somewhere relationships and ideas are shared as easily as a great bottle of wine. VSC’s founding Vintner Members include iconic producers like Screaming Eagle, Bryant Estate, Dalla Valle Vineyards, Opus One, Spottswoode Winery, and Vine Hill Ranch alongside wineries to watch including MacDonald, MOWE, Ad Vivum, Annulus Cellars, Pulido~Walker, Morisoli Vineyard, and Sphaerics.
Beloved wine country chef Polly Lappetito, founding chef of Ciccio located just up the street from VSC in Yountville, is helping Laz bring the VSC provisions menu to life. At its heart is “Friends & Neighbors,” a special section bringing together some of Laz’s favorite chefs, restaurants, and culinary talents, including The Charter Oak, Bouchon, and Under-Study. Personally sourced and hand-selected by Laz, the menu will also feature imported and local specialty cheeses, artisanal salumi, Regiis Ova caviar service, conservas, and The VSC ‘Capt. Pete’ Italian, a made-to-order sandwich inspired by the one her father regularly made for her growing up in New York. Everything has been thoughtfully chosen to complement the wine experience.
Rotating art exhibits will add another level of nuance and experience to VSC’s expansive cultural offerings, which include partnerships with resorts such as Solage, Senza, the Westin Verasa Napa, and Vintage House & Hotel Villagio.
“We are creating a community that extends beyond wine, bringing together acclaimed chefs, artisanal producers, entrepreneurs, authors, and other tastemakers who contribute to the character and culture of Napa Valley,” says Laz. “VSC is about more than what’s in the bottle – it’s about a macro-approach to wine that encompasses the people, places, and artists lifted up by wine country and the unique connections we all have with each other here.”
In addition to daily wine and food service, VSC offers private membership with specialty offerings including wine storage, access to private dining and event spaces at VSC, members-only tastings, rare wines, events, and competitive reciprocal club memberships with its domestic and international partners including but not limited to:
- 55 Seventy – Dallas & Houston
- The University Club of San Francisco – San Francisco
- The Vine Club – Atlanta
- Birch Road Clubhouse – Chicago/Denver/Seattle
- Boundary Social Club – Portland
- 22 Vanderbilt – New York City
- The Pershing – Austin
