Under the wide open wine country sky, indulgence usually comes in a glass. At Four Seasons Resort and Residences Napa Valley, it now arrives with a key fob.
The resort’s collaboration with the Napa Valley Car Club reframes the classic wine country itinerary. Instead of mapping out tasting appointments, the Napa Valley Dream Drive invites you to chart a 50-mile route through vineyard-laced backroads in a machine engineered for speed. The day begins with a uniformed driver pulling up to the resort in your choice of Bentley, Rolls-Royce, or a top-tier SUV. Then, you’re whisked away toward The Barn, the club’s private Downtown Napa headquarters along the Napa River.

To understand the experience, you have to understand the club itself. This isn’t simply a fluorescent-lit storage facility. It was co-founded by entrepreneur and visionary Andrew Mazotti and a group of like-minded partners who saw no reason wine country couldn’t embrace automotive artistry alongside Cabernet. What began as an exotic car venture evolved into a gathering place for people who appreciate design in all its forms, whether a perfectly tailored jacket or the curvature of an Italian supercar.
The Barn reflects that philosophy. The space reads as a contemporary clubhouse rather than garage. Yes, the cars are immaculate and formidable, but they share the stage with generous patio seating under palms along the river, a stocked bar, and an easy camaraderie among members. Some arrive fluent in torque specs; others simply love the hospitality. Both fit in.


After a brief introduction to the fleet, you choose your co-star for the afternoon. Ferrari. Lamborghini. Aston Martin. McLaren. Each represents a distinct personality, from operatic and flamboyant to understated and lethal. A lead driver outlines the route and safety details, then the engines turn over. The drive itself is curated to showcase the valley’s bucolic stretches, where the road rolls and bends in ways that reward attention. There is a particular satisfaction in guiding a precision-built supercar through terrain that’s better known for tractors and tasting rooms.

Returning to The Barn, the tempo shifts. The cars are parked with care, and the rush gives way to reflection. A chilled glass appears. You take a seat overlooking the river, replaying a particular stretch of road. The car stands nearby, your trusted accomplice. It’s a moment to absorb what just happened—to let the adrenaline taper before the next chapter of the day begins. Eventually, your chauffeur reappears, and you’re delivered back to the Four Seasons where spa appointments and Michelin-starred dinners await.
Napa Valley will always belong to its vineyards. But thanks to this partnership, it also belongs to those who believe a winding road can be as transportive as any vintage. It’s the ultimate wine country pairing: grand cru terroir and grand touring. Wine may still be the headline here, but thanks to the Four Seasons and the Napa Valley Car Club, horsepower also has a starring role.
