"I have never ordered wine online, so when I made my first order with Grape Intentions, I wasn’t sure what to expect. The wines that I receive are outstanding, never had any problems. Makes my life easy! Great company, great wines."George & Linda E. Cheyenne, WY -
"Hands down the best wine club out there. Always something new, amazing quality, and I love that it has expanded my palate to now enjoy rosé."Rob T. Washington, DC -
"We just opened our 10th shipment of wonderful wine! It is safe to say Grape Intentions has enhanced our lives. After we open each box we really enjoy reading the fun stories about the wine grapes, the region and the winemaker, and we appreciate the tasting notes and the pairing suggestions too. And yes, we have been known to do a happy dance when we uncork one of your fine wines!"Kevin & Debbie M. Placerville, CA -
"I've been a Grape Intentions member since they launched and I love the convenience factor, I never have to worry about running to the wine store for a last minute party invite at a friend's. I always have a quality wine supply!"Stephanie C. Philadelphia, PA -
"We love trying new types of wine, but we're by no means experts. Having Grape Intentions make the selections for us takes away the risk of us making a bad choice and allows us to be more adventurous with no effort. We've been very happy with the wines we've received."John H. Cary, NC -
"We get varietals we never would have picked out on our own, from vineyards we never would have known to try, along with bonus information about the wines and what to drink them with. We’ve never had a bad bottle, and we could not love Grape Intentions more!"Lauren S. Ardsley, NY
-
"Opening my box of wines each delivery has become one of my favorite rituals (well, ranked slightly after actually drinking them)! The quality of the wines has been uniformly superb, and the wine descriptions have been as interesting and educational as the wines themselves."Dusty F. New York, NY
-
"Nevermind the sake of ease and convenience, I love that each time I receive my Grape Intentions shipment, I open the box excited to see what wines have arrived — knowing very well that there will be an outstanding selection, all based on my preferences, yet vintages that are new and refreshing to try."Arend F. Arlington, VA
-
"I love Grape Intentions because it exposes me to wines that I would not have tried otherwise, and I know that they will be high quality thanks to Brett's knowledge and experience in the wine industry. I also love that part of my subscription goes to doing good."Meli M. Washington, DC
-
"We are not big wine drinkers, so it is delightful to have someone pick out the wines and receive some background on the selected wines. Always a very pleasant surprise each month!"Karen F. College Station, TX

TapizTapizOne of the keys to making great wine in Argentina is to search out high-elevation sites to plant grapes. At nearly 4000 feet above sea level, these are among the highest - and best - the country has to offer. Dark fruit with a hint of eucalyptus, this pairs well with pork ribs.
Grape • Cabernet Sauvignon
Place • Mendoza, Argentina

OMNE Cabernet Sauvignon Gran ReservaOMNE Cabernet Sauvignon Gran ReservaThe Mediterranean climate of the Maipo is ideal for Cabernet. The cooler weather keeps the fruit and alcohol level in check. Intense ruby in color with classic, forward aromas of cherry, violet, cassis and smoke. The influence of French oak gently reveals in hints of toast and sweet spice. Great with asado.
Grape • Cabernet Sauvignon
Place • Maipo Valley, Chile
FYI • The subzone for this wine is Valle de Limari. -

Hillick & HobbsHillick & HobbsPaul Hobbs does it again with this vivacious DRY, aka not-sweet, Riesling.

Pair with fish, grilled sausage, or a summer salad.
Grape • Riesling
Place • Finger Lakes, New York
FYI • The first vintage from this estate was 2019.
