7 reasons members love The California Wine Club
01
Over $250 of wine for $49 — including a $150 bonus bottle
Your first Premier Series delivery includes 4 handpicked wines plus a gift bottle of 2019 Conn Creek Special Selection Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. That's a $150 wine on top of four bottles you've already chosen. No hidden fees, no sign-up costs, no catch.
02
Small-batch wines made by people, not corporations
Every wine we feature comes from a small California family winery — the kind of producer that makes hundreds of cases, not millions. These are handcrafted, limited-production bottles with genuine provenance. No bulk blends, no factory lines.
03
Bottles you'll rarely find in stores at exclusive prices
We partner exclusively with smaller wineries with extremely limited retail distribution. Sample wines usually only available at the winery tasting room direct to your door. Discover a new favorite? Members save 20% off all non-club orders across our range to keep you topped up.
04
Tasting notes that actually help
Each shipment includes proper tasting notes, food pairing suggestions, and the winemaker's own story. You'll know what you're drinking, why it tastes the way it does, and what to eat with it.
05
100% Love It Guarantee
If a bottle isn't your style, we'll make it right. No fine print, no awkward phone calls. We've been doing this for 35 years, and it's as simple as this - we don't want you drinking wine you don't love.
06
35 years of discoveries (and counting)
Since 1990, we've been connecting wine lovers with California's best-kept secrets. Over 200 winery partners, thousands of members, and a track record that speaks for itself. We visit every winery we feature, taste the wines, and meet the winemakers before anything goes in a box.
07
Access to our wine concierge
Whether you want help with pairing, picking out the right gifts for your family, or even want us to help plan your visit to wine country, we have an expert concierge ready to talk with you (yes - right here in the USA and with a direct phone line reserved for members).
Never mass-produced or impersonal. Just wine from real Californian producers, delivered.

Got Questions?
How does the club work?
We handpick wines from small California family wineries and deliver them to your door. You choose reds, whites, or a mix, and how often you'd like a shipment — monthly, every other month, or quarterly. Each box comes with tasting notes, pairing tips, and the winemaker's story.
Can I order a variety of wine styles?
Yes — select reds, whites, or a mix.
Am I locked into a contract?
Absolutely not - you can pause or cancel, anytime.
What makes these wines different?
95% of wine sold in the US comes from big corporations. We work exclusively with artisan winemakers.
How are the wines chosen?
Our team personally visits every winery we feature. We taste hundreds of wines to find the ones worth sharing — small-batch, handcrafted bottles from producers you won't find in any shop.
What if I want more of my club wines?
When you discover a new favorite wine you can re-order with a 20% discount to our standard bottle price. Either order online or have our concierge team add it to your next shipment.
Can I gift a box?
Absolutely. Gift memberships of three months or longer come with a discount, and we handle all the delivery details.
What if I don’t like a wine?
Our “Love It” Guarantee means we’ll replace it, no questions asked.
