Founder's Club
I created the Founder's Club to showcase the world's best small-batch wines, and to give wine lovers access to pieces of Napa & Sonoma that you won't find anywhere else. Founder's Club shipments almost exclusively feature red wines, with an exceptional white wine included on rare occasions. As a member you'll get:
- 3 shipments per year with 4 bottles per shipment
- Priority access to new wine releases
- Discounts on Melier private tastings & concierge services
- Shipping included with each delivery
I look forward to enjoying some amazing wines with you — Greg
Membership FAQs
Who is the person that curates this wine club?
All of our wine clubs are curated by a Melier Tastemaker. Our Tastemakers are wine professionals located throughout the country, who love small-batch wines and have a passion for sharing wine with others.
Tastemakers are responsible for designing their wine club, selecting the bottles for each shipment, offering wine-related guidance to members, hosting regular member tastings, and connecting members with vintners and other wine experts.
Is there a minimum commitment?
Nope! You can pause or cancel your membership at any time.
When will I receive my wine?
Member shipments go out in March, June, September, and December. Orders are processed on the 1st of each month, and your wine ships on the 15th (weather-permitting).
The one exception is for your first order, which is processed immediately and shipped on the next scheduled shipping date.
Does some shipments cost more than others?
Yes, some shipments may cost more or less depending on the wines selected, seasonal shipping rates, etc. However, Tastemakers are encouraged to minimize these differences and keep shipments within +/- 10% of their default price.
Can you ship to my state?
We do not ship to AK, AR, DE, HI, MS, RI, or UT. All other states are eligible to receive member shipments.
