Wine Guide to the Best Wine Clubs

Wine guide to the best wine club
There is such a huge variety of wine clubs, how can anyone choose the best wine club to join? A wine of the month club is a great gift item and choosing a club membership is actually a lot of fun. Here is why:

The cost of a club can vary widely from the very cheap to quite expensive and everything in between. Discount wine clubs offer a nice selection starting at $19 per month.

You can easily narrow down your selection of wine club by choosing the country the wine was made. There care clubs that specialize in French, Italian, Australian and other clubs that take great care in mixing the country of origin for a truly international wine club.

When it comes to an American wine club there are many wonderful choices. There are clubs specializing in just California, Oregon or Washington wines. The choices can be narrowed down further by regions like Napa Valley, Sonoma, or the Central Coast. Anyone with a favorite wine region can probably find a club with distinctive wines.

Many wineries have their own wine clubs with special privileges otherwise not available without a membership. Every month they send bottles from cellars that are not for sale to the general public. Sometimes these wines are from small lots made with special care. Other privileges include free or discount tastings at the winery, free tours, invitations to special events, custom wine glasses and private tours with the winemaker.

Wine clubs also specialize in types of wines like red wine or white wines. Sometimes these clubs have a great variety of types of red wines from around the world or they will only carry a certain type of grape like:

• Cabernet Sauvignon
• Pinot Noir
• Barolo
• Zinfandel
• Malbec

• Bordeaux

The white wines have their own clubs too. There are clubs that specialize in white wines like:

• Chardonnay
• Sauvignon Blanc
• Voignier
• Riesling
• German white wines
• Pinot Grigio

Anyone that enjoys sparkling wines can join a wine club that has wines made using the Champagne method. These wines are not just for celebrating, they are a wonderful accompaniment to food, especially appetizers.

A 90+ Wine Spectator rating is a special distinction for wines. There are several clubs that feature 90+ ratings from Robert Parker, Wine Enthusiast or the Wine Spectator Magazine.
