Join our Velvet Society

Velvet Society

What is the Velvet Society? You may well ask, and we are glad that it has piqued your curiosity. At Mudbrick we treasure opulence, texture and romance… our flagship wine is named Velvet of course, because the word embodies the tactile, decadent and seductive nature of our most prized and finely crafted wine.

We want to create a society that enjoys this sort of thing.  Membership is essentially free, but to join you subscribe to receiving bottles of our Flagship wine at an en-primeur purchase rate because membership provides privileges.

As a member of the Society, you will also have the first opportunity to reserve your place at the next Velvet Society Dinner in Spring before tickets are made available to the general public (your ticket is valued at $150).  The dinner is a chance to come together and indulge our passion for candlelight, fine food and opulence.  It’s a night to enjoy a full dégustation dinner with accompanying Mudbrick wines and meet fellow enthusiasts…possibly something we don’t get to indulge in often enough.

The benefits continue in the list below:

To become a member or talk with us about the Velvet Society, call, email us or  please drop in to our Cellar Door.

Society membership particulars…

Members of the Velvet Society receive:

• The opportunity to reserve your place at our Velvet Society Dinner in Spring.  Spaces are limited and members receive primary invitation mail outs.

Shipping is an additional cost to be paid by the member – members living on Waiheke may collect at Mudbrick.

Existing member payments are processed 1^st September, or the Friday immediately before if the 1^st September lies on a Saturday or Sunday.

 New members may join and purchase the upcoming vintage until the release date of 30^th September.

Membership is paid for on a rolling basis, in order to cancel a membership the Velvet member must notify Mudbrick in writing at least 30 days prior to 1^st September.

 If a member joins the Velvet Society after the current vintage’s release date, the member will sign up for the next year’s vintage. In this situation, members may either pay now to receive their membership card on the spot and enjoy all the benefits of being a Velvet Society member immediately, or leave payment details with Mudbrick and we will charge $750 on 1^st September (plus wine freight charges if based overseas) after which we will send out the new membership card and all membership benefits begin thereafter. 

There – that’s all the fine print sorted.  We feel very excited to offer a membership worth having, a society worth joining, and providing you with the opulence and decadence that we so love to create.
