Wine Clubs Are Easy to Join

Joining a California wine club

Wine club in St. Helena, CA

If you’re a big fan of California wines, you should definitely join a wine club. You join one by agreeing to buy a certain number of bottles every year, and the club delivers them to you. They may also send information on the wine and what sort of food it’s best paired with. In the most exclusive wine clubs, you get a higher level of membership by agreeing to buy more wine. Joining should be free, and you should be able to cancel at any time, but be sure to read the terms before joining a wine club.

A good wine club will try to find unknown wines that deserve a wider audience and bring them to your attention. Wine clubs are also judged on the number of different club levels and price ranges (in both cases, more is better), shipping frequency, discounts and the number and variety of events held every year.

An exclusive wine club near St. Helena

Anderson’s Conn Valley Vineyards in Napa Valley, a 10-minute drive from downtown St. Helena, has its own wine club. By agreeing to buy six bottles a year in groups of three, you can get Level I membership with discounts on their wines, tickets to parties and invitations to a complimentary tasting. Agreeing to buy 12 bottles a year, or 24, gets you higher levels of membership with even more benefits. Once you’ve chosen a membership level, buying additional bottles won’t count toward your annual allocation.

One wine you might get to try at their wine club is the dark ruby 2008 Right Bank, a classic blend. After a brief period of high wind and heavy rain, Napa Valley experienced a dry, cold spring in 2008. Summer was cool, delaying the ripening of the grapes and making some thinning necessary, so this was not the most abundant vintage. A warm spell in September ripened a lot of varieties of grapes at once — we had to hurry to harvest them all in time. The Right Bank wine from this year has an aroma of mocha, cedar, blackberries and black pepper, with a note of plums as the nose opens up. The wine has a superb texture with a silky finish, and a flavor dominated by black fruit with crushed rocks. This wine is expected to improve for twelve to fifteen years and stay at its peak for ten more.

Anderson’s Conn Valley Vineyards produces world-class wines at affordable prices. The vineyard is a 40-acre estate just south of Howell Mountain, and has been owned and operated by the Anderson family since 1983. Anderson’s wines are sold online and in five locations in Napa Valley, and many other locations nationwide. Join today.

The Fun of Joining a Wine Club

Exclusive Wine Clubs

Wine club in St. Helena, CA

Wine clubs work like book-of-the-month clubs — you buy a certain number of bottles a year, and the club delivers them to your door. You get discounts on the wines they offer (especially if this club is associated with a particular winery) and other benefits, which may include discounts on merchandise, free tastings and priority invitations and (again, if this club is associated with a particular winery) priority invitations and reservations at winery events. A wine club should offer information on the wine you get and suggestions on what foods to pair it with. There shouldn’t be any cost to join, and you should be able to cancel at any time.

 

Benefits of wine clubs

Some famous wine clubs are the Gold Medal Wine Club, the International Wine of the Month Club, the Original Wine of the Month Club, Lot 18’s Tasting Room and Uncorked Ventures. Some clubs offer your choice of what series you would like. You might be able to choose to be sent wines from a specific region, or a specific kind of wine. Tours and tastings will give you the opportunity to meet the winemakers and talk with other wine lovers. If you join a wine club that belongs to a winery, you know they’ll have the wine when you order it.

How Wine Clubs Work

Wine clubs of Napa Valley

Wine club - St. Helena, CA

Wine clubs are an established part of the traditions of California wine. If you’re not familiar with them, they work like book-of-the-month clubs. You buy a certain number of bottles a year, and the club delivers them to your door. You get discounts and other benefits, such as information on the wine and the best foods to pair it with. There shouldn’t be any cost to join, and you should be able to cancel at any time.

The most exclusive wine clubs are able to find quality lesser-known wines and bring them to members who might otherwise never have the chance to taste them. They cater to everyone from the expert to the novice trying to become an expert. Famous wine clubs include the Gold Medal Wine Club, the International Wine of the Month Club, the Original Wine of the Month Club, Lot 18’s Tasting Room and Uncorked Ventures. Each of these has slightly different rules, methods and traditions.

Some wine clubs offer your choice of what series of wines you would like. You might be able to choose to be sent wines from the Pacific Northwest, aged Cabernets or the most highly rated wines in California. Tours and tastings will give you the opportunity to meet the winemakers and chat with other wine lovers. You can avoid a common complaint about wine clubs — that members sometimes don’t get their wine because the club is waiting to receive it —by joining a wine club associated with a particular winery.

Frequently Asked Questions about Wine Clubs

Questions and answers on wine clubs

Wine club - St. Helena CA

What is a wine club?

A wine club is a club for wine buyers. You join one by agreeing to buy a certain number of bottles every year, and then sit back and let them be delivered to you. The most exclusive wine clubs have higher levels of membership which you can get by agreeing to buy more wine.

What are some of the benefits of wine clubs?

You get discounts on the wines you buy. The club may also provide information on the wine and what sort of food it goes with.

You also get to try wines you might otherwise never have seen. A good wine club will make an effort to find unknown wines that deserve a wider audience and bring them to your attention.

How much does it cost to join?

It shouldn’t cost anything. In most cases, the amount of wine you agree to buy is the only expense. If you would normally buy that much wine anyway, the discount might actually save you money. You should also be able to cancel at any time. Read the terms of any wine club before joining.

How much choice do I get?

Different wine clubs offer different choices. Some clubs offer more than one series per year. You can choose to receive wines of a specific type and age group, wines from a specific wine-growing region or particularly highly rated wines.

I know someone in a wine club who didn’t get her wine last month, and when she called the club, they told her they were waiting to receive it from the winery. Does this happen a lot?

Not often, but sometimes. If you want to be sure of avoiding it, some wine clubs are associated with particular wineries, which makes that sort of thing much less likely.
