Laithwaites Wine Club Review

Sip Luxuriously with the ...
Laithwaites Wine Club

To me, your wine club experience should bring you the very best in wines from your favorite regions or uncharted territories AND help you develop your appreciation for wine. With the Laithwaites Wine Club, you'll find both of these goals at the center of every operation and interaction.

With many plans available and a standard for quality that's well-established in the wine world, this wine club is a great choice if you want to sip with style and total satisfaction.

Plenty of Plans

If you've shopped around for wine club memberships, you've probably noticed that many offer only a small number of subscriptions without much variety. But the wine club offered by Laithwaites is a different story. This club features over 8 distinct wine plans to suit your every inclination.

One of their most popular subscriptions is the Cellar Classics option. This subscription ships itsy-bitsy cases of 12 small bottles of some of the world's most renowned and best-loved wines. From every region imaginable, catering to every taste, the wines in these quarterly cases will wow you with their palate appeal - and the small size means you can seize them for a reasonable price.

Another attractive choice is the President's Cellar Club. This option features bottles hand-selected by wine expert Hugh Johnson, who apparently conducts blind taste-tests to bypass the wine hype and pick truly enjoyable bottles. The specific regions and varietals will change, but the quality of these cases is reported to stay the same.

If you have a favorite wine region or want to explore the offerings of a new land, you can try any number of Laithwaites' subscriptions. From the Rioja plan or the Australia Direct option to the Claret club, there's bound to be something just right for your style.

The Extra Mile

Laithwaites delivers tasting notes, special invitations to parties and events, and special discounts on all their offerings. In some cases, you'll even get an invitation to visit the club's affiliates in the subscription region.

Their customer service is highly rated among members, and is especially appealing with a guarantee that allows you to return a wine if you're dissatisfied with it for any reason.

Delivery is ranked well for its speed and careful packaging, and while prices aren't the most competitive in the industry, fans of this wine club report you'll get what you pay for.

All in all, if you're ready to start a wine adventure that begins and ends with full-bodied bottles and many incentives, the Laithwaites Wine Club may be your best bet.
