If you’re someone who makes wine a priority, a wine subscription box will make your life way easier. The upside of ordering a subscription instead of just going to the store is that you get discounted bottles conveniently shipped to your door and you have access to wines from across the country and around the world that you couldn’t get your hands on otherwise. Plus, who wants to go out to buy wine when it’s freezing out? Wine subscription boxes also make for the perfect gifts during the holidays. Here are the best wine boxes to keep on your radar.
Vinebox
Vinebox is a pioneer in the wine-by-the-glass-club concept. Each month you get three different wines delivered to your door, for $35 per month, in perfectly measured pours. Subscribers choose from reds, whites or a mix. You’ll find a combination of adventurous wines, classic wines and new wines. Inside each envelope in your package, there are tasting note cards so you can figure out the perfect food, music and setting that’ll go best with your glass. Sign up here.
Bright Cellars
To get started with a Bright Cellars subscription box, you take a wine quiz in order to build your profile. The company will match you with wine based on your answers. The more it gets to know your tastes, the more it’ll keep you in the loop when certain bottles go on sale. Bright Cellars will run you $60 a month for four bottles of wine from around the world. Get started here.
Tasting Room
Here’s how Tasting Room works: instead of asking you questions about your wine preferences, the company sends you a selection of wines in miniature bottles and you go through a quick interactive wine tasting. You’re only sent full bottles of wine that match your preferences, which ends up saving you money. You get a full-sized shipment of wine bottles that you can feel confident about. It’s $9.95 to sign up and you get the mini-bottle tasting kit. Here’s how to join.
Plonk Wine Club
For the eco-conscious wine drinker, Plonk Wine Club will send you a curated batch of sustainable, small batch, boutique wines from around the world. You get to choose from red, white or mixed wines in cases of 2, 4 or 12 bottles each month. Depending on what you order, Plonk Wine Club starts at about $49.95 per month. You get access to rare wines along with tasting and pairing notes. Sign up here.
Winc
With Winc, you start by answering some questions like “how do you like your coffee” and “how do you feel about salt.” Each month, you get four bottles that are matched to your tastes and preferences. Shipping is complimentary and there are no membership fees. Bottles start at $13, so about $52 per month, and you can skip a month or cancel at any time. Winc curates over one hundred wines. The company’s goal is to make wines that might only be available through select retailers or restaurants around the world more accessible to everyone. Get started here.
