The Premier Series Wine Club

The Premier Series

Our original and most popular wine club since 1994, the Premier Series delivers boutique wines of exceptional quality and value from the world’s finest wine producing regions. To seek out impressive new wines, we travel to the source, visiting regions such as Italy’s Piemonte, the Ribera del Duero and Rioja regions of Spain, the Western Cape of South Africa, and other top wine regions in countries like Chile, Australia, France, and here in the USA. We inspect vineyards, meet with winemakers and, most importantly, taste wines.

You or your gift recipient will enjoy:

• Estate-Bottled Wines at Exceptional Values
• An International Variety in Every Shipment
• Hard-to-Find Vintages and Rare Finds
• Cellar Notes Profiling Each Wine & Winery
• Flexible Gift Ordering – Personalized Gift Message

Meet the Winemakers

In our monthly Cellar Notes, we’ll introduce you to the men and women who are the heart and soul behind each wine, as well as the regions and grape varieties which make each wine unique. You’ll also receive full descriptions of each featured wine along with tasting notes, recommended food pairings, complementary recipes, and more.

Reorder Your Favorite Wines

Getting two new exceptional offerings delivered to your door each month is fun — but it’s only half the wine club experience. Why stop there? Get more of your favorites to enjoy again and again, and share with friends and family! Wine Club members enjoy discounted pricing on re-orders of all wines, while supplies last.

Our 5-Point, Quality-Driven Wine Selection Process Sets Us Apart

Our Wine Selection Process is the key to consistently delivering interesting and exceptional wines at outstanding values from the vast array of boutique premium wine producers worldwide. Here’s how we do it:

1. 40 Years of Experience Ensures Quality, Variety, and Value

Our two-tiered tasting panel is led by Don Lahey, whose career in wine spans over 40 years as an acknowledged wine educator, syndicated columnist, wine importer, and consultant to New York’s most respected sommeliers.

2. We Rate and Drink A lot of Bad Wine, So You Don’t Have To

We rate hundreds of wines from boutique producers around the world to bring you two exceptional selections each month, rating each wine's appearance, aromatic profile, body and balance, varietal character and style, intensity, finish, and of course, its overall flavor and appeal.

3. Our Two-Tiered Wine Panel Reflects Our Customers

Our primary tasting panel is comprised of 10 sommeliers, professional tasters, and winemakers. They rate each wine considered, of which only the top 10% are sent to our secondary panel which includes upwards of 30 or more tasters from novice enophiles to those with decades of experience importing wine.

4. Our Panel Members Travel to Top Wine Regions

We inspect vineyards, meet with winemakers, and most importantly, taste wines. Don and select panel members have traveled to Italy’s Piedmont region, the Ribera del Duero and Rioja regions of Spain, as well as top producing wine countries such as Chile, the US, Australia, France and South Africa.

5. Strong Relationships with Wineries and Importers & Exclusive Selections

The relationships that Don has developed over the years as an importer, as our buyer, and by traveling to the wineries is a key to discovering exceptional limited production wines at great values. Our longstanding, highly regarded reputation in the industry creates opportunities to pick up exclusive buys on hard-to-find, limited run vintage wine.
