How the Allocation Works

A quiet rhythm, twice a year.

We do not chase markets. We bottle when the wines are ready, write you a letter, and ask if you'd like the offering. Members rarely skip.

i.

March & September. The letter.

A printed letter from Eleanor goes out with the upcoming offering. Notes on the vintage, what changed in the cellar, what to expect in the bottle. No marketing language. Just the truth as we found it.

ii.

April & October. Confirm or skip.

Members have three weeks to confirm, adjust quantities, or skip. We do not charge cards until the day before shipping. Skipping does not affect tenure.

iii.

May & November. The wines arrive.

Temperature-controlled ground or two-day air. Adult signature required. Members are welcome to pick up at the estate during release weekend instead. We'll have a glass poured for you.

Tasting Hours

By appointment, Tuesday through Sunday.

The tasting room is the original 1979 redwood barn. Forty-five dollars per guest. Waived with a two-bottle purchase. Reservations open ninety days out and weekends typically book three to four weeks ahead.
