It is the last few days of October and I am hearing advertisements for Black Friday. Not only Friday, but this year we are going to have a Black Thursday. So I guess that it isn’t too soon to start thinking of holiday gifts. Of course wine is a great gift for wine enthusiasts. For the next several Wednesdays our blog will feature gift ideas.

You could go to a wine shop and stare at hundreds of bottles screaming, “buy me.” What do you select? Another option is to purchase a wine gift membership through the Wine of the Month Club. The Wine of the Month Club was established in 1972. They evaluate hundreds of wines each month and provide the best for their clients.

You can custom make the gift you want to send. You decide how many months you would like to include in the gift membership and the intervals the deliveries will be made. For example you can send a gift membership for four months with deliveries every three months. You can decide if your gift membership will include one white and one red wine for each shipment or two whites or two reds. There are five different series of membership to choose with prices ranging from $34.00 to $83.00 per month including shipping. The series include:
Classic Series
Vintners Series
Limited Series
California Wine Series
Cellar Series

Check out the Wine of the Month Club’s website for information about club membership for yourself or as a gift. You can also purchase individual bottles of wine at the site’s wine shop and there is an assortment of gift baskets that would also make perfect gifts for the holidays in the gift basket section of the website. While at their website take a moment to view a few of their entertaining videos. The videos are between eight and eleven minutes in length.

Cheers,
Terry
