Wine Clubs
Wine clubs
are a great way to get to sample different types of wines picked
by people who know about quality, vintages and what the labels
mean. Usually they send a monthly selection for a reasonable price.
Many provide tasting notes and information on the wine.
If you'd like
to learn more about wines, or are looking for a gift for someone
who really likes wines, a subscription to a wine club is a good
solution. Make sure to check that the area where you live allows
you to have wine shipped to your home. Several states in the USA
prohibit this...
The International Wine Clubs Association - This wine club
association lists wine clubs around the world with a search by
the country you live in. The clubs are listed with web site and
contact email. They list three
clubs that ship overseas for their subscribers.
The
International Wine of the Month Club - This wine club
ships two bottles every month. The subscriptions are open ended.
You are billed for each month unless you choose to pay for a longer
term. Each months selection includes a white and red (you can
opt to have just white or just red) from major wine producing
areas around the world. They have other features you may enjoy.
You can send a hint to someone if you'd like this as a gift or
send a "virtual
wine" card to someone.
Fine
Living Wine Club - Monthly selections can be chosen from
three levels. The first two are mainly Western US labels either
white or red while the Reserve Club, with the premium price of
US$99 a month, offers only top red wines from around the world
plus.
Internet
Wines & Spirits - Wine Clubs 101 - This site offers
wine clubs ranging from US$30 to US$100 a month. You can choose
the generic wine club 101 or focus on reds, whites, champagne
and other special wine groupings.
Wine
Clubs - Drink Wine.com - If you are fond of the wines
produced in Sonoma, California...this directory lists many of
the clubs based in the wineries located there and links to the
sites if they have one. Mainly a local resource, but a good job
as far as it goes.
