"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 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 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 -
"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'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 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
-
"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
-
"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

Nicolas PNNicolas PNMaison Nicolas strives for an honest expression of each of the single varietals they work with, rarely blending. This is a classic pinot noir from southern France with rounded cherry notes that pairs perfectly with brie and a baguette.
Grape • Pinot Noir
Place • Languedoc, France
FYI • Pinot Noir is one of the most delicate red grapes. -
Palazonne TixePalazonne TixeBuilt as a hostel for pilgrims making their way to Rome, a thorough modernization has made this one of the most famous producers in Umbria. A little extra time on the skins gives this wine it's famous copper color. A fragrant wine that pairs nicely with a margherita pizza.
Grape • Pinot Grigio
Place • Umbria, Italy
FYI • Umbria, a landlocked part of Italy that borders Tuscany. -
The Butcher's Daughter CSThe Butcher's Daughter CS"Enjoy this fine medium bodied Cabernet Sauvignon from the Pays D'OC growing region in France. The wine has a deep ruby red color, and red fruit aromas. The mouth is filled with dark fruit like black cherry and plum, and a hint of spice on the finish. The tannins are well balanced." Pair with a black bean burger.
Grape • Cabernet Sauvignon
Place • Pays d'Oc, France
FYI • This wine is Mevushal Kosher.

Tenuta DeAngelis Rosso PicenoTenuta DeAngelis Rosso PicenoThis family operation since the 1950's has worked to produce wines from three varietals, two of them are featured here. A deceivingly full-bodied vino despite the fact it is aged for a mere 10 months before being released. With a bright ruby color and floral aromatics this is delicious all on its own.
Grape • Montepulciano, Sangiovese
Place • Piceno, Italy
FYI • This region is renowned for their flavorful fried olives. -
Aziende Valle Friuli ColliAziende Valle Friuli ColliAustria meets the northern boundary of Friuli. Like Austria, white varietals reign supreme in this NE region. Cool nights help keep the acidity vibrant. This crowd pleaser, with hints of peach and gooseberry, gets the job done every time. Excellently paired with sushi or seafood risotto.
Grape • Pinot Grigio
Place • Friuli, Italy
FYI • Friuli has one of Italy's most developed economies. -
Theorize SBTheorize SBThe majority of this fruit comes from the northern area of Napa allowing the cooler environment to soften the citrus notes of this grape that can sometimes come across as too "grapefruity." A delicious party sipper but also pairs well with oysters or shrimp.
Grape • Sauvignon Blanc
Place • Napa Valley, CA
FYI • The label refers to the study of making ideas a reality.

Dom. Delaporte SancerreDom. Delaporte SancerreA family run business since the 1600's, today Matthieu Delaporte is running the winery with a focus on precisions, balance, and complexity. Expressive with intensity marked by notes of rhubarb, kiwi, and marigold. Superb alongside goat cheese.
Grape • Sauvignon Blanc
Place • Loire Vallley, France
FYI • Crottin de Chavignol is the famed goat cheese from here. -
Chelsea Goldschmidt Guidestone RiseChelsea Goldschmidt Guidestone RiseNamed after Nick Goldschmidt’s eldest daughter, Chelsea Merlot highlights the juicy red fruit and spice notes from barrel aged Merlot. Sourced from a beautiful vineyard along Route 128 just east of Geyserville. Broad and expansive with black cherry, wild blackberry, rhubarb, and ripe plum. Pair with steak tacos.
Grape • Merlot
Place • Sonoma County, California
FYI • Merlot is the second most planted variety in the world. -
Damien Martin Macon-VerzeDamien Martin Macon-VerzeA family domaine, owned by the father-and-son team of Robert and Damien Martin. Complex with well defined citrus and stone fruit aromas, with hints of acacia, honeysuckle, verbena, and fennel. Great as an aperitif. Also pairs well with risotto, mixed salads, or cold antipasti.
Grape • Chardonnay
Place • Burgundy, France
FYI • Son Damien has principle control over the vineyards
