Everyone always wants to find the perfect holiday gift. They usually want their friends and family to not only receive and enjoy the gift, but also to remember them throughout the entire year. Fortunately, for those among us with food and wine lovers in our life, a wine club can offer an outstanding gift which fulfills both of those requirements.
A wine of the month club can be shipped often on either a monthly, a set number of months or even a quarterly basis. Extending shipments to a longer time period allows your gift giving budget to go quite a bit further and allows the receiver to open packages at least four times throughout the year instead of solely on Christmas morning.
A wine club at its core is suppose to help the avid wine drinker explore new and exciting wineries while offering the novice the ability to enjoy wine in the comfort of their home. What should you look for in a wine club, if you’re using it as a holiday gift? To start, make sure you’re ordering with enough time so that the receiver will receive their first shipment before the holiday. Secondly, you need to make sure the quality of wine is high. A wine of the month club should also offer a higher quality of wine than you can reasonably find at your local grocery store, or even your local wine store. If they aren’t doing that much, then why should you be paying extra for shipping? Lastly, please make sure there is an adequate amount of customer service. Does the company owner or proprietor have a direct email or phone number on their website?
