Rhone Around the World

WINE CLUB

The Passion

For over ten years, the girl & the fig has concentrated solely on “Rhone-Alone” wines.  Though many of our offerings are from California and right in our Wine Country playground, the wine world is continuing to show off its ability to create amazing wines with the traditional “Rhone” varietals originating from the Rhone Valley in France. 

Through our “Rhone-Alone” Wine Club, we will take you on a voyage that will teach you about these age old varietals, the areas in which they grow and the vintners that create their magic potions.  We will share with you our passion of all things Rhone on this journey.  It is our goal to bring you a selection of interesting Rhone varietals that are in limited quantities, hard to find, exclusive, and unique.

 

The Deal

Each quarterly shipment will include 1 – 3 wines, ranging from $45 - $125 per shipment, including tax and ground shipping. (Shipments will leave our warehouse mid-month in April, June, October & December.) Included in your package will be detailed tasting notes, grape varietal information, the inside story about the folks behind the wines and recipes from the girl & the fig to create the perfect pairing.  We will keep you posted on Rhone wine events and other special events in Wine Country. 

 

Membership Fee

The membership fee is only $10.00 and will be deducted from the price of your first shipment.  Your credit card will be billed only when we send you a shipment.  You may cancel your membership at any time.

Sample Shipments

A year in the “Rhone Around the World” Wine Club may present itself in the following way: A Tri-Continental Approach to Grenache, Celebrate Summer with Luscious Pinks, Que Syrah, Shiraz, The Late Harvest Sticky Selection.  We don’t want to be too specific – the element of surprise is more than half the fun.

 

California First

In our first year of launching the “Rhone Around the World” Wine Club we will ship only to our members in California.  If you live outside of California and are interested in becoming a member, please let us know and we will contact you when we begin shipping to your state.

The Fine Print

We request that club members supply the girl & the fig any changes - including cancellations, address, credit card and expiration dates - at least three weeks prior to the upcoming shipment.  If a shipment goes to an old address, the member is responsible for all charges incurred.  If a credit card is declined and not updated within three weeks, your club status may be forfeited.  Please notify us by fax, mail or e-mail.  If you are going on vacation and would like a club shipment held until your return, please notify us three weeks prior to the scheduled shipment and we will do our best to accommodate your request.

Alcoholic beverages may be sold and delivered only to persons who are at least 21 years old. In placing your order, you represent to us that you are at least 21 years old, and that the person to whom your wine will be delivered is also at least 21 years old. When your alcoholic beverages are delivered, the person receiving delivery will be required to show identification proving that he or she is at least 21 years old. If possible, direct your package to a business address where the shipper can easily obtain an adult signature.
