Introducing Keswick Vineyards Barrel Ownership Program
Become a Member of The Association of Barrel Owners at Keswick Vineyards
Keswick Vineyards is receiving 50 new French and American oak barrels this summer for use in the 2007 vintage. Here is an opportunity to become a partner with us, have some fun, and of course, taste some fantastic wines. The barrel program works this way: You purchase a barrel from us for $800 (plus tax). We give you a barrel, put an engraved plaque with your name on it and a prominent place in our cellar. You let us keep the barrel to make wine for four years. When we are done, you get to take the barrel home (barrels make fantastic furniture, planters or lawn ornaments). What do you receive for lending us your barrel for four years?
- Free tastings in our tasting room
- 20% off all purchases in the tasting room and gift shop
- Invitation to Wine Club events, such as barrel tastings and blending parties
- The opportunity to taste the wine in your barrel as it develops and matures
- Free admission to sample all our wines pre-bottling at a barrel tasting in Spring, 2008
- Free admission to a Barrel Owners only Holiday open house in late December to taste new wine out of your barrel
And yes, there's more - Since we are using your property to make our product, we will pay you rent, in the form of one case of wine a year for the four years your barrel is in wine production, starting in 2008, when the entire 2007 vintage is bottled. That is a case of wine in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 - four cases over four years. You will also have the opportunity to choose whether you would like red or white wine in your barrel. So, if you enjoy Keswick Vineyards, our people, and our wines, owning a barrel is a great way to get involved in the wines and the winery and an opportunity for us all to have a little fun.
