Wine and Whiskey Club FAQs

What are the benefits of being a Wine and Whiskey Club Member?

• Wine -- Members make their own selections. Make your selection from either our Riverwood Winery wines or from wines remaining in stock from those we’ve poured at our monthly International Wine Tastings. RW Single Bottle Members can choose any wine up to $20, RW Two Bottle Members can choose any wines up to $40; wines valued at greater than $20 or $40 depending on the membership may be substituted with the charge of the remaining balance. If you do not pick up your wine each month, it will roll over to the next month.
