Society of Smuggler’s Wine Club

For those of you with a renegade spirit, a predilection for the finer things in life, and a soft spot for a tall tale, you may just be Society of Smugglers material.
With a portfolio of wines made from the original smuggled clone blocks – the oldest and most prized blocks in the vineyard – along with invitations to back door deals, epic parties, comp tastings in the cave, the chance to make your own wine through the Smuggler Barrel Program, access to the Smuggler’s Hideaway, and first dibs on anything else we’ve got going on, this is the wine club that gives all others serious Pinot envy.

Barrel Program

Make Your Own Wine

As it turns out, Winemaker ranks first place on the list of dream jobs for dudes in America. Our Barrel Program offers you the chance to live the dream without the cool $20-mil you’d need to spend for your own winery in Napa these days.

When you sign up to make your own barrel of wine, you’ll join our killer winemaking team for an intensive session at the winery to learn the art and science of blending, create your own label and package, and you’ll end up with 24 cases (approximately 288 bottles) of your very own wine.

Smugglers Hideaway

A.K.A. Vineyard Guest House

Our sweet little guest house is the perfect spot to launch all your covert Napa operations, and Smugglers get first dibs on reservations. It’s got vineyard views, 2 bedrooms (we don’t mess around when it comes to thread count), a cozy fireplace and all the peace and quiet you’ll need to escape.

Located in Coombsville we’re just a few miles from downtown Napa and everything that our legendary valley has to offer.

Harvest Moon Feast

Our favorite night of the year. A clandestine evening of camaraderie and revelry with a fair bit of debauchery thrown in.…Think sabering French champagne into the setting sun, more wine than most folks consider civilized, a multi-course feast of mouthwatering magnitude, a raging bonfire under the ancient oaks, fine cigars, and always a few surprises (we’ve had visits from the likes of Tommyknockers and fire dancers in years past).
