The snack brand Club Crackers, owned by Mars Incorporated, has partnered with Butter Wines to launch a sweepstakes offering one grand prize winner and three guests a Napa Valley getaway. The prize includes roundtrip airfare, luxury accommodations, a visit to the JaM Cellars Wine & Music Studio, a charcuterie building class, and a private chef-led four-course dinner pairing Club Crackers with Butter wines, along with limited-edition merchandise.
The co-branded Club Crackers x Butter Wines Napa Valley getaway sweepstakes runs from July 1 through November 20, 2026, with entry via receipt upload or a no-purchase-necessary alternative.
The partnership builds on the success of a previous collaboration that sold out quickly, indicating that fans are genuinely enthusiastic about the pairing.
