🍷 Premium W**e Club Pick Up Weekend is here!

This weekend, our Premium W**e Club members are picking up something a little special from the cellar. With access to select w**es and library bottles that tell the story of Fernwood over the years, this is one of our favorite weekends of the season.

Premium members — your w**es are waiting.

Curious about the Premium W**e Club and what comes with membership? Reach out to us or ask our tasting room staff this weekend and we’ll be happy to tell you more.

🍷 The story behind Round Rocks.

Inspired by Matt and Tiff’s visit to Château La Nerthe in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Round Rocks takes its name from the galets—the iconic rounded stones that cover the vineyard floors of the region.

That experience made its way home to Fernwood and helped inspire our 2024 Round Rocks.

Come out this weekend, escape to the redwoods, and enjoy a glass while you still can. Our inventory won’t be around forever! 🌿🍷

Cheers!
