To gain access to these wines, you need to become a shareholder of Chalone Wine Group (www.chalonewinegroup.com) by buying 100 shares of the company’s NASDAQ traded stock (currently around $9.00 a share). Through the shareholder’s benefits program you can purchase wine futures on Lafite-Rothschild and will have access to new releases, limited bottlings, and special group selections. Current members have reported significant discounts on Lafite wines, which paid for the cost of the 100 shares the first time they purchased wine through the shareholder’s benefits program.

The shareholder’s website is located at http://www.chalonewinegroup.com/share...olders.htm and explains the program in further detail.
