Monte Bello Collector

Monte Bello Collector members receive our estate bottlings from the Monte Bello Vineyard, Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Estate Merlot, and Estate Chardonnay, and are added to the waitlist for futures of our renowned flagship wine, Monte Bello.

Between nature’s offering and our selection, the number of Monte Bello cases varies each year. We always hope to fulfill the requests of our current members, but it is possible that in a given year, because of weather or the rigor of our standards, we will fall short. The quality of the Monte Bello can be assessed shortly after harvest, quantity typically by spring the next year. We will keep you informed, and hope to provide your requested amount in most vintages.

Release Schedules

For upcoming shipment details, please refer to the schedule below. For specific shipping dates, refer to the events calendar.

Monte Bello Futures Shipments
The quantity of the prior years vintage is determined by our blind tasting assemblage process which occurs in February, March and April. Members are then charged, depending on final quantity, in May/June. The wine is then shipped two years later in March. In some vintages there may not be enough to extend a futures offer to all members. Priority is based on tenure in the program.
