How the Futures Program Works

 

 
 

Each year in August, during the long-anticipated release of our current vintage, we begin to offer the next year’s vintage at significant savings of 45% - 55% off the eventual retail price. These futures wines are sold, by definition, while the wines are still aging in the barrel. Therefore, our futures customers purchase these wines months before they are bottled at a significant discount and, then, following the bottling, the customer’s personal account manager will arrange shipment or customer pick up of the wine. We literally have thousands of long-standing customers across the country who have been faithfully purchasing futures wines from the Roche family every year – many since our first release in 1988.
