The Wine Club Fine Wine Catalog

The Wine Club Fine Wine Catalog

Despite the name, The Wine Club is not a monthly subscription club. It is a fine-wine merchant. The company was formed in 1985 to sell fine wines at discount "bargain basement" prices from a warehouse, and it grew into one of the largest wine retailers on the West Coast and the largest seller of Bordeaux, with a newsletter list of more than 100,000 subscribers. In the last decade it has become best known for sourcing sought-after, collectible Burgundy. Its current stock is browsable at https://thewineclub.com.

The business is now owned by former employees, who moved it away from a brick-and-mortar storefront to online ordering and a private email list. The selling point is still the staff: the company describes its people as fine-wine consultants rather than order-takers, and the online catalog carries the same mix a collector would expect from a serious shop.

What The Wine Club Sells

  • Wines by country — Argentina, Austria, Australia, Chile, France, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Portugal, Spain and the USA
  • Wines by region — including Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, the Rhône, the Loire, Napa, Sonoma and Oregon
  • Collectible and older vintages — the catalog lists mature bottles alongside current releases
  • Pre-arrivals — wines offered before they land in stock

Ordering and Shipping

Wine is sold in California and shipped to most states, though the list of states can change with direct-shipping laws. Every delivery needs an adult signature from someone 21 or older with valid ID, so the company suggests shipping to a business address and choosing express shipping to protect the wine from heat or cold in transit. Questions about an order go to 800-966-7835 or info@thewineclub.com.
