The Best Wine Gift Membership

A Wine Gift of the Month Club is a membership that regularly delivers a bottle (or several) to your door regularly, usually monthly or quarterly, making it the best wine gift idea. We also offer a 2-pack option, so you’ll receive two bottles at once- no need to wait! If you’d like even more options, check out our Bottle Shop, for one-off bottle purchases, delivered several times throughout the month.

Wine can have anywhere between 5% and 23% ABV. The average alcohol content of wine is about 12%. This amount varies depending on the variety of wine, as well as the winemaker and their desired ABV.

We don’t just send you a wine bottle; we, take you on a journey; from the creation of the bottle to the first sip. Each wine gift bottle is specifically curated for you, so you know you’re not just receiving a random bottle. With different wine gift options, you can expand your palate and help discover what you truly like. Plus, we help enhance your wine knowledge with our Digital Tasting Guide, which is packed with unique information about each bottle and expert tasting notes.

Taster’s Club is trusted by large media outlets like Buzzfeed, Esquire, Forbes, and Men’s Journal, as well as thousands of members all over the US, establishing it as one of the best wine gift subscriptions available.

We’re continually expanding our networks and strengthening our relationships with wineries and independent bottlers around the world to bring you the best wines to gift. Our curator dedicates himself to seeking out the most unique, hard-to-find wine gift bottles from award-winning craft and artisan wineries.

The wines are chosen for their unique growing and harvesting techniques, production styles, ingredients, and finishes, ensuring you have access to the most exceptional wine gift options. We also occasionally offer wine bottles exclusive to Taster’s Club with limited production and availability, so you know you’re getting something special among the wine gift options in the market.

Unlike most wine clubs, which focus on a specific region or even a single producer, Taster’s Club sources exceptional bottles from around the globe, many of which can’t be found anywhere else. That means each month is different, which gives you the chance to get acquainted with the entire landscape of wine. Over time, you can expect to see a mix of award-winning Old World and New World wines from producers around the world, like:

• Rich, luscious new-world Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley, Australia, Argentina, and South Africa
• Earthy, complex Barolo and Barbaresco from Piedmont to inspire your next pasta night
• Nuanced pinot noir from cool-climate regions like Burgundy, Oregon, Sonoma, and New Zealand
• Sophisticated Spanish sparklers that will upend your expectations about Cava
• Vibrant, aromatic, and often age-worthy Rieslings from Alsace, Australia, and Germany
• Quirky natural wines made without sulfur or additives
• Unusual bottlings from obscure regions like Slovenia, Georgia, and Greece
• Resonant Rioja
• Deliciously savory wines from France’s Rhône valley

We focus on sharing exceptional quality, super-premium wines from under-the-radar producers you might never get the chance to taste otherwise. We love wines made by family-owned companies who share our passion for great drinks and great stories. We’re also always on the lookout for organic, biodynamic, and natural wines to share with club members. But there’s no single style or philosophy that makes it a “Taster’s Club” wine. We’re committed to a single defining characteristic – exceptional quality.

We’re also always on the lookout for organic, biodynamic, and natural wines to share with club members. So, if you're looking for the best wine to gift or unique wine gift ideas, our selection will impress and delight you or your wine gift recipient.

Each winery and brand we work with has a unique story to share, and we’re continually impressed with the passion and craftsmanship that goes into each of their products. A Digital Tasting Guide accompanies each selection, so you can learn all about the winery, the bottle, why we chose it, and recommendations on how to enjoy your wine gift, making it the perfect resource for finding the best wine to gift for any occasion.

Our White Wine Gift Club offers various types of whites, including the popular Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Riesling. We also offer lesser-known varietals such as Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer, Roussanne, or Airen.

Our Red Wine Gift Club features popular red varietals like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Syrah (Shiraz), Grenache/Garnacha, Zinfandel, or Malbec. You’ll also receive red from more obscure sub-regions of Europe, like Roussanne or Sangiovese. With either Club, you can choose to receive one bottle per month or two.

If you're looking for the best wine to gift, both our Red and White Wine Gift Clubs feature a curated selection of exceptional wine gifts. Whether you're looking for the best wine gift ideas for a special occasion or simply want to surprise a friend with a thoughtful gift, our Wine Gift Clubs offer the best wines to gift for any wine lover.

Most wines are aged in barrels. The most common type of barrel used is oak because it adds oxygen, tannins (the backbone of red wine), and a depth of flavor. Oak barreling is most commonly used with red wines and Chardonnay. Wines can also be aged in other types of barrels, including stainless steel, clay, or even concrete.

When selecting wine gifts, consider how the wine is aged, as this can impact flavor profiles. Typically, wine is aged for approximately 6–9 months, allowing enough time for the wine to soak in the characteristics of the wood. Specifically, younger barrels give off structure and flavor at a faster, stronger rate than older barrels, making them a perfect choice for those looking for the best wine to gift.

Wine can be sipped by itself or paired with some foods. Every pairing can be done with complementing or contrasting flavors. In a complementary pairing, the flavors of the wine and the food melt into each other. In a contrasting pairing, you bring out flavors in the wine or food to create a new or unexpected flavor, adding a layer of excitement to the tasting.

For example, sweet wine can be complemented by other sweet flavors like a chocolate bar or bowl of berries or a more complex dish like chocolate mousse or a fruit tart. But if you’re looking to contrast a wine’s sweetness, try more salty foods, like nuts, crackers, or fried chicken.

We offer food pairing ideas in your Digital Tasting Guides that accompany your bottle each month, so be sure to check it out! Understanding these pairing techniques can help you find the best wine gifts for your friends and family.

To choose the best wine to gift, consider the recipient’s preferences—whether they enjoy red, white, or sparkling wine. If they have a favorite varietal, you can focus on that or pick a wine from a renowned region or vineyard. For a gift with a personal touch, opt for a wine that pairs well with the recipient’s favorite foods.

For special occasions, the best wine gifts could include a premium bottle from a prestigious winery or a wine that’s perfect for aging. A sparkling wine like Champagne or a high-end Bordeaux can also make a memorable gift. Consider pairing the wine with a personalized wine accessory, such as a wine opener or custom glasses.

If the recipient doesn’t drink wine, consider giving a wine gift that complements their interests. A wine-themed gift basket with wine accessories like a corkscrew, wine glasses, or a wine decanter can be a great choice. For a more personalized touch, opt for a non-alcoholic wine or a wine-scented candle.

For wine beginners, wine gifts that feature versatile, easy-drinking wines are ideal. Look for wines like a smooth Chardonnay or a light, fruity Pinot Noir. Best wine gift ideas also include a wine-tasting subscription, like our Wine Gift of the Month Club, as it provides a curated selection of wines tailored to the recipient's taste, allowing them to explore different varieties and discover what they enjoy. Each month, they’ll also receive easy-to-understand tasting notes, making it an ideal way to learn about wine without feeling overwhelmed.

Yes, a wine gift subscription, like Taster’s Club Wine Gift of the Month Club, is a fantastic idea, especially for wine lovers who enjoy discovering new wines.
