For fourteen years Melville, along with the support of our customers, has been exploring the diversity of our vineyards through both the estate and small lot collection wines. With the release of our eleventh vintage and a more comprehensive understanding of our vineyards, we are excited to now offer a wine club to our most loyal customers.
We see this decision as a natural evolution of our business and as an opportunity to further showcase and explore our vineyards’ nuances through special and very limited bottlings. We will continue to send regular newsletter offerings for the wines and events that you have become accustomed to, but for those who join one of our three wine clubs, an entire new set of advantages will immediately commence. Examples of these benefits include discounts on all purchases, access to rare bottlings, complimentary tastings and invitations to wine club only member events.
Wine Club members will enjoy three shipments per year arriving in the months of January, April and November. There is no cost to join one of our clubs except for the cost of the wines themselves. Club shipments are made in the Winter, Spring, and Fall. Listed below are descriptions of the three wine clubs and their respective benefits.
For any questions, please email us at wineclub@melvillewinery.com or via phone at 805.735.7030. Click frequently asked questions for more information.
