Take the QUIZ

  • "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 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
  • "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
  • "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
  • "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 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
  • "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
  • "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

    El Prohibido

    The geography in Spain's northeast is worth the visit alone with dramatic canyons and vertical cliffs. This excellent showing isn't allowed to list the D.O. because of the use of the second grape - who cares! Hitting the right spot with notes of cherry, plum, and a bit of gaminess. Pair with pheasant or sheep cheese.

    Dom. la Roubine Sablet La Grange des Briguiere

    "The subtlety given by the Briguières sandy soil combined with a search for the highest maturity for a harvest with no de-stemming, offers a wine which is both elegant, complex and genuine." Notes of black pepper, black fruit, and minerality. Pair with mushroom soup or a beef stew.

    Grape • Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault
    Place • Rhone Valley, France
