From the most informed connoisseur to someone who is trying their first Shiraz, there are wine clubs out there to suit all. Most will offer some form of wine club gift package so that you can buy something meaningful that will be appreciated for the wine lover in your life.
Wine clubs offer not only fantastic wines from all over the world, sent directly to your home, but they also allow you to enjoy new and exciting creations that you may never have come across before.
However, with all the options out there it can be a little overwhelming and difficult to know which is the best wine club gift. Here are our top three picks for wine club gifts this spring.
Naked Wines
Naked Wines is a relatively new company that has a great reputation, growing rapidly as it has since it began in 2012. Naked Wines prides itself on high-quality wines for low prices, and has a famous ‘No Fuss Refund’, where you can simply reship or be refunded on any problem deliveries.
Naked Wines offers quite a vast range of gifts to suit most needs. It has a variety of gift cards and membership plans, from simply buying a loved one the membership and allowing them to deal with all the details, all the way to managing an account for someone else so that you can deliver to them the exact varieties you know they will enjoy.
Along with these deals, Naked Wines also offers branded merchandise which can be a sweet addition to a gift, such as crystal glasses, cheese boards, and wine jackets.
Plonk Wine Club
Plonk Wine Club is a leading wine club worldwide, specializing in bringing its members expertly curated selections of boutique wines, originating in diverse regions from all around the globe. Most of Plonk’s selection comes from small, passionate vineyards, rather than large, corporate-owned companies.
Along with its decent selection of gifts for your loved ones, its wine of the month club is a great subscription to buy for a friend who is open to trying new things. Plonk wine gifts can be sent as mystery packages and with personalized messages from yourself. Or, if the receiver would prefer it, you can simply hand full control of the subscription over and leave them in charge. All shipments come with detailed descriptions plus tasting and pairing notes.
The Gold Medal Wine Club
Offering customers fantastic quality hand picked wine from around the globe since 1992, the Gold Medal Wine Club has a stellar reputation. One thing that puts Gold Medal aside is that it has very strict standards for wine quality, and almost every wine available on its site is award winning, or at least highly rated by reputed wine reviewers.
Gold Medal Wine Club offers quite an impressive variety of choices when it comes to gifts. It has a wide selection of packages to choose from as well as accompanying accessories. It all depends on what the recipient likes. Out of the three, this is the website where you can tailor your gift the most. Perhaps your loved one has a passion for pinot noir, in which case you can have a world-class collection shipped to them for a surprisingly reasonable price. There are many more similar wine club memberships, depending on what type the recipient likes.
