Surprise! Flambeaux Wine Club Members First to Receive the Inaugural Vintages

Friends, There are many benefits to being a Flambeaux Founders' Club member, but not all of them are advertised (because, frankly, who doesn't like a good surprise?). It is with this in mind, that we are sending you your first wine club shipment in early November, one month before Flambeaux will be shipped to the general public. As our most valued customers, we want you to be the first to try our wine. Please keep in mind that this 2014 vintage is still "young" and will benefit from a decant and aeration (we recommend two hours) if enjoyed over the next six to twelve months. This wine should really improve over the medium term and will drink well for at least a decade. Be on the lookout for more exciting announcements (and, yes, surprises) over the next few months.  Continue »
