About Us
Established in 2008, by winemaker and owner Seth Cripe. Seth’s dream of making wine and growing grapes started randomly as a 14 year old dishwasher/busboy at a restaurant in his native Anna Maria Island in Florida. At the age of 17, Seth left home to pursue his dream, driving across the US in his trusty 88 Suburu with $1200 and arriving in Napa Valley the summer of 1997 where he started work as a harvest intern at Swanson Vineyards, under the mentorship of Marco Cappelli. After 4 harvests at Swanson, 8 harvests at Caymus along with a few others at some of the worlds’ most renowned wineries, in 2008, Seth started making his own wines calling them LOLA. Seth’s dream was to create a winery that stands for people with a passion for wine that represents world class quality, wines of purity and soul at approachable prices. These are the very same ethos that LOLA represents with each wine that we produce today!
LOLA is a Napa Valley based boutique winery focused on creating high quality, approachable and affordable wines. Our winemaking approach pays tribute to the old-world tradition with carefully selected vineyards and handcrafted wines made in small batches. For us, growing grapes and making wine is about connecting with nature, working alongside the ever-changing elements, year to year, to make wines that represent their true sense of place.

Tasting Experience
The Lola House, founded by Seth Cripe, offers intimate and lively seated wine tasting of our carefully and passionately curated five 2 oz pour wines from our classic and artisanal collection. Our tasting fee is $35.00 per person (a 3-bottle purchase waives a tasting fee).
Additionally, we have two distinctive and delicious offerings:
(1) Food Pairing: Cortez Conservas Tasting of Bottarga and Mojama for $30.00, prepared/plated by our in house chef, Jarred LaPeire. A caveat: this is a small food pairing (tapas style) served with fresh slices of local baguette and local butter for 2 ppl. This is not a charcuterie board.
(2) Conserva shop: Our in-house shop "Cortez Conservas" founded by Seth and Mic Cripe. The shop offers the highest preserved "tinned" fish that are carefully selected and curated by Seth Cripe, his wife, Rafa, and the LOLA Team. Oils, spices, and other LOLA merchandise are also available from our shop.
