The best Maryland wine club has got to be Vinebox. Before this club came along you rarely got the chance to taste before buying a full bottle but that’s exactly what Vinesse offers. You’ll never have to put up with uninspiring wine again.
Make sure the club delivers to Maryland and see it offers additional shipping options in case you want extra bottles in between your regular dates. Check out the club portfolio to see if it has an interesting portfolio and make sure the membership fees suit your pocket.
You can say goodbye to unwanted wine when you join Vinebox because this club puts you in control of what you get in a bottle. Every quarter, you receive taster-sized samples mostly from European vineyards covering classic styles and grapes. You try each 100-ml taster in the same way you would at a tasting event and decide if any inspire you to buy a full bottle. It certainly beats getting caseloads of labels that don’t do it for you. You pay for the bottle with credits you’ve accrued with earlier shipments and Vinebox arranges delivery.
Vinebox keeps the taster samples fresh and vibrant with advanced fractioning tech so there’s no chance of oxidized flavors or stale aromas.
While Vinebox focuses on well-known grapes, it occasionally sends a lesser-known varietal to broaden the experience of your palate. There’ll be nothing outlandish though and everything is exclusive to Vinebox.
Take control of the bottles on your shelf with Vinebox membership.

Dry Farm Wines has your name on it if you love your reds and whites but can do without the alcohol and sugar that goes with them. This club feels your pain so the majority of names in its selection have as low as 7% ABV and none are above 12.5%. That’s technically low to medium alcohol levels we’re talking about. Even better, the sugar levels in each glass are way below the average but your Malbec, Viognier, or Chardonnay still tastes like the real thing.
The planet likes this club too. Much of its selection is made using organic and biodynamic methods and they are all produced with dry farming – hence the name of the club. What this means is vintners don’t irrigate their vines, so roots have to dig deep for nourishment resulting in fine, concentrated reds and whites.
You can choose from a red, white, mixed, rosé, or sparkling club.
Dry Farm Wines is your club if you want labels that are good for your palate and the planet.
