with the perfect wine:

Take the QUIZ

  • "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
  • "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
  • "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
  • "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
  • "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
  • "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
  • "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
  • "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

    Über delicious! That’s all you need to know about this Riesling. The slate soils of this region account for the wines minerality and the cool climate its acidity. The peach and lime notes pair nicely with fish and poultry dishes. A particularly good fit with sushi.

    El Libre is inspired by the heroic days of the May Revolution in Argentina. This Revolution was the struggle for the people's rights. These grapes are grown in high altitude vineyards and reflect where they come from. Refreshing with bright acidity this makes for a great aperitif.

    Fefinanes Albarino

    Palacio de Fefinanes is housed inside the stunning baronial palace in the coastal city Cambados. This winery only owns a few acres and buys the rest of its grapes under long-term contracts. Without question, year in and year out, this is one of the best Albarino's anywhere. Pairs well with most seafood dishes.

    Grape • Albarino
    Place • Rias Baixas, Spain
    FYI • The first producer to bottle under the D.O. Rias Baixs.

  • Predicador
    Predicador

    Place • Rioja, Spain
    FYI • Predicador means preacher in Spanish.

  • AXR Proprietary Red
