Are You Looking for
an Australian Wine Club?


An Australian Wine Club...
Southernmost Wines on the Rise

Over the last 20 years Australian wines have achieved a prestige and notoriety that is only rivaled by the top wine producers in the world. This has awakened increasing interest in Australian wines in the four corners of the world.

The natural consequence of this trend has been the establishment of a good number of Australian wine clubs, some of them are based in Australia and some others, though based elsewhere, are also specialized in Australian wines.

Wherever you are living, if you are interested in Australian wines, there is quite possibly a wine club offering Australian wines near you to satisfy your needs.


Best of Australia


If you are planning to join a wine club offering Australian wine, I recommend you find out about the region's wines first, as it will be much easier to make your choice, if you know what to look for.

Australia is mainly famous for its Shiraz, also achieving great results in Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Semillon, and Riesling.

You can go to the National Wine Centre of Australia (opens in a new window) or the Sydney International Wine Competition (opens in a new window) to find out more about what to expect from wine clubs advertising the "best Australian wines".


A Choice of Australian Wine Clubs


There are many recommended wine clubs in Australia, as well as the already mentioned Australian-themed wine clubs all over the world.

Wine Clubs in Australia

  • Among the local wine clubs, the Wine Society deserves its own chapter. Founded in 1946, it has a great reputation both with the public and the press for offering great wines at reasonable prices, while it also holds classy tastings and imparts high level wine education.

  • Several popular Australian magazines such as Better Homes & Gardens also recommend the Cellarmasters Wine Club which offers many convenient wine plans from "Big Bargains" to a "Connoisseur Series". They also carry New Zealand wines, and their tasting panel has very impressive credentials. As another option, you could join the Qantas Wine Club which operates in partnership with Cellarmasters.

  • The Premium Wines Wine Club offers assorted 12-case bottles at discount prices.

  • The Tahbilk Wine Club offers a great service for those wishing to purchase wines from their own well-respected winery's cellars.

  • Although not technically a wine club, Boutique Wineries is the place to go if you want to discover the rare wine gems at some of Australia's best boutique wineries.

  • The David Jones Wine Club isn't so much a club as it is a quality wine service that you will particularly enjoy if you know what you like.

  • Australian Wine Selectors specializes in Australian wines... from the popular well-known cellars to the lesser-known boutique wineries

  • If you are interested in a rewards style of club that allows you to make your own choices in wine, then Vintage Cellars Wine Club may be the way to go. And with each purchase you'll earn points that you can redeem later for future purchases.

  • Based in Sydney, the Wine Odyssey Wine Club treats you to Australia's very best wines.

Australian-themed Wine Clubs
  • Californians interested in Australian and other Southern hemisphere wines, can join the Southern Hemisphere Wine Center which specializes in wine from Australia, South Africa, Argentina, Chile, and New Zealand.

  • The Sweden-based Australian Wine Club is just one of those rarities; apparently, Swedes love their Australian wine...

Whether you are looking for the ultimate Eden Valley Shiraz, or an exotic white blend from Fleurieu, there is a wine club ready to bring the best of Australia to your table, and I hope this guide will help you find it. :-)
