FAQs
How do I purchase The Mascot?
Members of the allocation will be notified and given access via email in June to our offering. Given the small amount of The Mascot produced, we will fulfill each request to the best of our ability.
How do I become a part of the allocation?
If you submit your name and email address on the "Join Allocation" page we will follow up; it would be great to get to know you and answer any questions you may have about The Mascot.
When should I drink The Mascot?
In the spirit of a wine shared with family and friends around the dinner table, we wanted to produce something that was ready to drink upon release, but that would also evolve over the next few decades. We encourage people to open some bottles early on, and save a few as time goes on.
What is the significance of "Prince", the dog on the label?
The engraving of "Prince" was commissioned over one-hundred years ago, by the president of the Farmers Deposit National Bank of Pittsburgh, for the bank's stock certificates. The dog, an english bull-terrier, lived at the bank (greeting customers and employees alike), and became a beloved symbol of their down-to-earth, loyal, and personal customer service values.
Can I visit you and taste the wine in person?
We currently do not have a tasting experience dedicated to The Mascot, but welcome your interest so we can notify you of events in your city.
Is 2 day shipping the only option?
Having tended our wine for years, we try to limit its time in uncontrolled environments. We ship 2 day only in order to minimize potential damage via trucking and extended temperature fluctuation. We truly believe it is the best for you and your purchase.
When will I receive my wine?
After all requests are fulfilled by hand on a per-order basis, we then look for the best shipment schedule, which can vary based on weather and locale. We aim to begin shipping orders in the fall.
