Friends of the Vineyard Program
With growing demand for our limited-production wines, we launched our exclusive Friends of the Vineyard program in late 2011. As a member, you’ll enjoy guaranteed access to our most sought-after releases, with the option to receive 3, 6, or 12 bottles of each wine per allocation. Each release includes a curated selection of our Howell Mountain, Diamond Mountain, and Oakville Ranch Cabernet Sauvignons, our Foreplay red blend, and our Durell Vineyard Sonoma Chardonnay. You can customize your preferences accordingly. These wines are reserved solely for Friends of the Vineyard members and are not available online or in retail. Before each shipment, you’ll receive advance notice with the opportunity to adjust your allocation (subject to availability). Unless you make changes, your selected wines will be billed and shipped to you automatically.

Current Friends of the Vineyard Releases:
2022 Haber Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon
Sweet spices, ripe red cherries and black raspberries come first, followed by aromas of sweet herbs and brown sugar. Rich red, blue and black fruits are joined by the scent of rose hips, thyme, cedar, and traces of pine on a sumptuous palate layered with flavor and supported by balanced acidity and sweet cocoa tannins. This beautiful wine is easily enjoyed over the next few years with decanting, but we expect it to develop and reward the patient for decades to come.
$195.00/bottle
Ask us about large formats. 1.5L, 3L, and 6L are available.
2022 Diamond Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon
At first taste you slip into the heart of darkness: blackberry, black cherry, dark chocolate, boysenberry, and sweet spice embrace the senses. Dense, rich, intense sweet fruit, are held together by supple tannin, scented with tarragon and black cassis. As the wine opens, it seduces with layer after layer of dark fruit, dark chocolate, and rich textures. This wine drinks gorgeously with decanting, but will evolve for decades for those who resist the temptation to drink it now.

2022 Oakville Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon
Concentrated aromas of boysenberry, sweet spices, and dark chocolate lift from the glass at first pour. On the palate the wine is bright and fresh, revealing layers of red cherry, bergamot, red currant, dried flowers, tea, sugar cookie, and mocha. The palate is textured and complete, the natural acidity and subtle dusty tannins providing tension and backbone. The wine ends with hints of cedar, cinnamon, clove, red currants and tea. The wine is approachable now with decanting, and we expect this wine to unfold and develop over the next decade or more.

2022 Haber Sonoma Coast Chardonnay
Light straw in color, the 2022 Chardonnay reveals aromas of wild honey, fresh cut apples, hints of toasted coconut and unfolds into mandarin, poached pear, crème patisserie, and toasted almond. It’s smooth, silky, and round in texture. The palate is rich and complex, balancing fresh acidity with creamy weight. Drink now and over the next few years, and as always, not too cold.
$75 / Bottle
2023 Foreplay Red Wine
A beautiful blend of three varietals which are Cabernet, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. A fun, food-friendly wine that pairs well with spicy dishes and Italian pasta favorites.
$69.00/ bottle
