Vinstrel is a Napa Valley wine and hospitality company founded by Augie Kersting, a former estate sommelier at Meadowood. Drawing on decades of experience in the wine and hospitality industries, Vinstrel connects collectors and visitors with handcrafted wines and memorable Napa experiences. Its portfolio features carefully selected, hard-to-obtain wines across a range of varietals and price points, with opportunities to access multiple rare allocations in one place. The team can also curate wine selections to suit individual palates.

Beyond wine, Vinstrel helps guests plan their Napa trips by recommending wineries and coordinating connections to restaurants, private chefs, and other local experiences. Through partnerships with transportation providers, hotels, and private homes, it helps groups find suitable options for getting around and staying in the region. Tastings and wine experiences take place in a private, historic location in the heart of Napa Valley. Whether visitors are discovering Napa for the first time or returning, Vinstrel aims to make their trip enjoyable and provide ongoing wine expertise after they return home.
