You are cordially invited to become a founding member of Meierstone Estate.
Please click below to view your personal invitation from owner and winemaker, Krystal.
Our estate vineyard is small by design—five hundred fifty-five vines, planted and stewarded with a long-term vision in mind.
By becoming an Estate Founder, you’re not purchasing a package or joining another club. You’re entering into a relationship with the vineyard itself—one that unfolds slowly, intentionally, and over many years.
Each founder row is marked with a custom plaque mounted along the main walk path, creating a permanent, visible connection between your name and the land.
Estate foundership is a one-time commitment that includes:
🙟 A named vineyard row, marked with a permanent plaque 🙜
🙟 A case of estate wine from each producing year, for up to five vintages 🙜
🙟 Lifetime access to estate-only wines 🙜
🙟 Invitations to planting day, harvest day, bottling day, and educational vineyard gatherings 🙜
🙟 Access to the Estate Tasting Table, located at the center of the vineyard 🙜
🙟 Small, quiet markers of membership: a founder’s hat, shirt, and embroidered sweater 🙜
These elements are meaningful, but they are not the heart of the offering.
This is about belonging to a place.
About being present for moments most wine consumers never experience—walking the rows as vines are planted, tasting wines as they evolve, returning year after year to something that grows alongside you.
For some, this becomes a way to anchor themselves to the land.
For others, it’s a way to honor a loved one or leave a legacy that endures beyond a single lifetime.
This is a long-term relationship with the vineyard, not a transaction.
Estate Founders are limited to ten members to preserve intimacy and stewardship of the estate.
If this resonates with you, we would be honored to welcome you into this next chapter.

How does becoming an Estate Founder my club membership?
Becoming an estate member is additive to your existing membership tier, giving you ground-up stewardship of our vineyard and access to the wines it produces.
When will the vineyard begin producing wine?
Estate vineyards take time. The first producing vintage is expected approximately 3 years after planting, with wines released once they are ready—not on a rushed schedule.
You will receive a case of estate wine from each producing year, for up to five vintages, as the vineyard matures.
What happens during the non-producing years?
Those early years are when the relationship truly begins.
Members are invited to:
- Planting Day
- Vineyard walks and educational gatherings
- Harvest Day
- Barrel tastings and wine blending sessions – help determine if we make single varietal wines, a blend, or both!
- Bottling Day – join the bottling line and get the wine from barrel to bottle!
You’ll be connected to the vineyard long before the first bottle is released.
Is this a one-time payment or ongoing fee?
This is a one-time investment. There are no annual dues associated with row adoption.
Wine purchases beyond the included cases are optional.
Can I dedicate a row to a loved one or in someone else’s name?
Yes. Members may choose to dedicate their row to:
- A spouse or family member
- A parent or loved one
- A meaningful name or legacy
The plaque can reflect that dedication, and we’ll work with you to ensure it’s handled thoughtfully.
What happens if I can’t attend every event?
There’s no expectation to attend everything.
This offering is designed to be available, not demanding. You’re welcome to participate as often—or as quietly—as you choose.
Can the row be transferred or inherited?
Yes.
Your connection to the vineyard is not tied to your presence alone. Rows may be:
- Transferred to a family member
- Passed down as part of an estate
- Reassigned with prior coordination
We view this as a long-term relationship, not a short-term contract.
What happens after the five producing years?
The included wine commitment covers up to five vintages.
Your named row, plaque, access to estate wines, and connection to the vineyard remain ongoing, even after those vintages are complete.
How many rows are available?
Ten total.
Once they are adopted, no additional rows will be offered.
This offering is intended for those who feel a connection to the land and the long arc of winemaking. It may not be right for everyone—and that’s intentional.
