Badger Wine Club
A male badger is a boar (but never boring), a female is a sow (yet rarely seen sewing), and a young badger is a cub (definitely not a scout). Badger colonies or communities are often called clans. With that in mind, we created our own wine community called the Badger Clan Wine Club. It’s a way to remain connected to Hamel Family Wines, fellow HFW devotees, and to ensure continued access to the latest releases of our wines.
Sancoucie Club
Our Premier Offering
Sancoucie loosely translates from French as “without a care” or “free and easy.” It also happens to be a Hamel family name, dating back hundreds of years to our family’s roots in Quebec, Canada. Combining our family heritage with the firm belief that living “free and easy” should also include plenty of wine (and HFW wine at that!), we invite you to become a “free and easy” Sancoucie Club member.
Sancoucie Club Members will receive:
- Two 12-bottle shipments (spring, fall): a combination of the latest releases of our Estate Series Wines, Reserve Series Wines, and special Library Wines
- Priority access to allocated releases and Library offerings
- 12 complimentary seats applicable to all Access Events
- Preferred access to club shipment events and preferred pricing for Collection Dinners and our annual winter holiday celebration Lighting of the Vines
- Preferred access to and pricing on nightly rentals at the Hamel estate guesthouses
- Complimentary ground shipping on Wine Club Shipments
Price per shipment is approximately $1,100 (Excluding taxes and shipping)
Mysterio Club
Our Thoroughbred Offering
Mysterio is the name of the “other man” in Pam’s life—her beloved horse. However, if you ask George, he might say that sometimes it seems like he’s the other man. Regardless of who you believe on this topic, there will be no mystery for Mysterio members. For those of you who may crave the unknown (or an “other man” for that matter) and enjoy living on the proverbial edge, we invite you to become a Mysterio Club member.
Mysterio Club Members will receive:
- Two 6-bottle shipments (spring, fall): a combination of the latest releases of our Estate Series Wines, Reserve Series Wines, and special Library Wines
- Priority access to allocated releases and Library offerings
- 8 complimentary seats applicable to all Access Events
- Preferred access to club shipment events and preferred pricing for Collection Dinners and our annual winter holiday celebration Lighting of the Vines
- Preferred access to and pricing on nightly rentals at the Hamel estate guesthouses
Price per shipment is approximately $600 (Excluding taxes and shipping)
Rosebud Club
Our Nickname Offering
Rosebud is from the classic film Citizen Kane, based on William Randolph Hearst’s life. The Hearst family once owned what today is Hamel Family Ranch! Orson Welles, director/star of the film, said that Rosebud represented “a mother’s love, which Kane never lost.” We didn’t know that, but we do know that Pam often refers to daughter Casey as Rosebud, and there is no better reason than that to become a Rosebud Club member!
Rosebud Club Members will receive:
- Two 4-bottle shipments (spring, fall): a combination of the latest releases of our Estate Series Wines, Reserve Series Wines, and special Library Wines
- 4 complimentary seats applicable to all Access Events
- Preferred access to club shipment events and preferred pricing for Collection Dinners and our annual winter holiday celebration Lighting of the Vines
Price per shipment is approximately $300 (Excluding taxes and shipping)
Club only events
Through signature wine club-only events, including Camp Hamel, The Badger Hour and The Badger Supper Club, the desirability, intimacy, and sense of community multiplies each year. These events feature a medley of HFW favorites like great wine, scrumptious food, distinctive music and creative entertainment. Members also have priority access to Lighting of the Vines, HFW’s annual community holiday gathering featuring a vineyard lighting orchestrated to holiday music.
