A Journey of Discovery, From Origin to Legacy
At Somerston Estate, membership is not a transaction — it’s an invitation to discover. With each release, members are welcomed into a story that unfolds slowly, guided by time, place, and the patient craft of our estate.
Our wines are released in limited quantities and offered first to members at pre-release pricing, long before they become available to our general mailing list. Each tier reflects a deeper connection to the land, the craft, and the legacy of Somerston Estate — a progression from discovery to stewardship.
Begin your journey — join The Origin, The Passage, or The Legacy today.
Membership at Somerston is not about access, it’s about belonging.
The Origin
3 Bottles Upon Release
Every exploration begins at the source. The Origin membership offers a first glimpse into the rare world of Somerston Estate. With each allocation, you’ll experience our newest releases — wines shaped by time, crafted by hand, and offered at pre-release pricing. Designed for emerging collectors and thoughtful explorers, The Origin is the first step toward discovering the essence of Somerston.
The Passage
6 Bottles Upon Release
For those deepening their connection to the estate.
True discovery unfolds through passage — through patience, attention, and time. The Passage membership invites you to experience Somerston Estate in greater depth, with six bottles per release and early access to our most limited wines. As a member of The Passage, you are part of an intimate circle of collectors who value connection — between the people, the land, and the legacy they share.
The Legacy
12 Bottles Upon Release
To hold a wine from Somerston Estate is to hold a piece of its history — a moment of balance between nature and time. The Legacy membership is reserved for the most discerning collectors who wish to secure their place in that history. With each 12-bottle allocation, you’ll enjoy priority access to all estate releases at pre-release pricing and invitations to private events at the estate.
