Grand Cru Members receive all of the benefits available to Old Vines Members, along with an increase to a monthly shipment of 12 bottles. Grand Cru Members can also opt to receive a smaller shipment of blue-chip wines such as cult Napa Valley Cabernet and the finest wines from Italy and France. This level of membership includes a personal consultation to assess your wine preferences and goals. If you are building or filling up a wine cellar, Grand Cru Membership may be of interest to you.

All of our wines are delivered in packaging that is designed to handle a few bumps and scratches. What they are not designed to do is protect your wine from heat! Never leave your wines inside a vehicle when temperatures exceed 75 degrees. Even a few minutes inside a hot car can ruin the wine.
We accept returns of wines that are either corked or are otherwise out of condition. Please ensure that the bottle is returned with a reasonable amount of wine in the bottle so that we can assess its condition. And again, never leave your wine in a hot car even for a short period of time.
