Since we’re on the subject of wine for newbies, this is an incredible deal if you’re looking for a unique last-minute gift…
The WSJ Wine Discovery Club is offering an introductory 12-bottle case for $70 + $20 shipping/handling/tax. At $140 normally, this is a steal! Along with your 12 wines, they throw in a ton of accessories for free– a lever-action corkscrew in a wooden presentation box with foil cutter, pourer, stopper and drip stop, plus tasting notes and a binder.
I like that they also provide the options of getting a mixed case, all whites, or all reds. Honestly, at $7.50/bottle this case is likely going to be much higher quality than anything you could find yourself at the store– plus it saves you all that time! You can give the entire case to one person, give away individual bottles, or just go ahead and save it for yourself! Yum.
Every month you’ll get a case of 12 bottles for $140, but you can choose to skip months if you’re not enthused with their wine selection, or have too much wine on hand… you can also cancel at any time.
If you don’t drink enough wine to keep 12 bottles on hand (it’d probably take us over half a year to finish a case) then take a look at the WSJ wine shop. They’ve got great recommendations at price points from <$15 to >$50, and if there’s anything in particular that catches your eye, it’s easy to order it or look for it at your local wine shop.
Happy holidays!
