Wine Club Description::
From their web site: The foundation stone of our Wine Fellowship is your participation in our pre-release program. With our overall small wine production (currently flucuating between 3000 and 4000 cases), exclusively estate grown and certified organic grapes, distribution of our wines needs to be targeted. In 2010 we will be releasing about 10 new wines and you don't want to miss any. Most of our wines are available at the tasting room but soon only the Wine Fellowship members will taste and enjoy the rarest of Fitzpatrick wines. As Wine Fellowship members you can enjoy tasting room discounts and availability shipped FEDX / UPS right to your home or business. As or before we release our new wines we invite you to come join us for a release pick-up party.Then if you can't make the party, we'll ship one bottle of each new release (usually 2-3 different wines at one time) directly to our Wine Fellowship members.
