21st Annual Celebrity Chefs Veterans Day Luncheon Recap

This week, the Yountville Chamber of Commerce was honored to support the 21st Annual Celebrity Chefs Veterans Day Luncheon at the Veterans Home of California – Yountville. Each year, this event brings together local restaurants, volunteers, and Chamber partners to serve a gourmet meal and celebrate the veterans who call the Home home.

Chefs from Brix, Bottega, Bistro Jeanty, Bouchon Bakery, Mustards Grill, and Bardessono Hotel & Spa (Lucy Restaurant & Bar) partnered with the Veterans Home culinary team to prepare a beautiful multi-course lunch enjoyed with wine and beverages donated by our local community.

A special thank-you to The Tug McGraw Foundation and to every volunteer who plated, served, poured, and helped make the day special. Your smiles and service mean the world.

We are deeply grateful for our veterans — for their service, their stories, and the privilege of celebrating them.

Thank you, partners and volunteers. See you next year for year 22!

Member Updates & News

Lewis Cellars – NEW Estate & Tasting Room Now Open

We are thrilled to share that Lewis Cellars has officially opened their brand-new estate and tasting room — located only five minutes from downtown Yountville.

This opening marks a full-circle moment for the Lewis family: the new estate sits on the very site where their first vintage was crushed, fermented, and bottled more than 30 years ago. Today, guests can experience that legacy firsthand through intimate seated tastings, stunning vineyard views, and the exceptional wines that Lewis Cellars is known for.

We couldn’t be more excited to welcome this beautiful new tasting experience to our community. If you’re looking for a special place to bring visiting guests — or simply want to explore what’s new in our backyard — we highly recommend booking a tasting and checking it out for yourself.

Cheers to Lewis Cellars on this milestone!
We are grateful to have you as part of the Yountville Chamber community.

A complimentary engraver will also be onsite to personalize select purchases — perfect for gifting.

Silver Oak is also offering a Current Release Bar Tasting featuring their Napa Valley and Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignons. This standing tasting is available for walk-ins (no reservation required), or reservations may be made if preferred.
Two wines | $25 per person | Special: two tastings for the price of one from 10:00 a.m. to noon (parties of 1–4).

Learn Tools for Suicide Prevention — Free Community Training

The Napa County Behavioral Health Board is offering a free community training on suicide prevention at its meeting on Wednesday, November 12 at 4:00 p.m. at the Napa County Health & Human Services Agency (2751 Napa Valley Corporate Drive, Building A, 1st Floor, Willow Conference Room).

Participants will receive QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer) Gatekeeper Training — a nationally recognized program that teaches how to recognize warning signs, offer hope, and connect someone to help. This training is designed for community members and does not require prior experience. Research shows that asking someone directly about suicidal thoughts does not increase risk — instead, it can open the door to lifesaving support.

The meeting will also include an update on the work of the Napa County Suicide Prevention Council. Training is free and open to all community members.

If you or someone you know may benefit from learning simple tools that can save a life, we encourage you to attend and share this information with others.
