The River Club
BRANDING, ILLUSTRATION
The River Club Napa is a collaborative wine-tasting space created by two family-owned wineries: Belong Wine co. and Paper Planes Wine. Tucked away along the river in Napa’s Tannery District, just a stone’s throw from downtown, this hidden gem pairs stunning river views with a refreshingly modern tasting experience.
The River Club is a fantastic addition to the local Napa community, offering an inviting space for wine lovers to gather and explore.
The branding draws inspiration from classic meeting spots of a bygone era while celebrating the unique identities of each winery. A protea, South Africa’s national flower, symbolizes Belong Wine Co.; paper planes represent Paper Planes Wine; and waves reflect the collective coming together on the river. These elements weave together a story of collaboration and place, creating a visual identity as distinctive as the venue itself.
