Best of Both Worlds Wine Club Review

A wine club from WineExpress (Wine Enthusiast)

WINE CLUB OVERVIEW & DETAILS

All-Around Wine Club Rating: 3.7

This wine club is...

Summary

From the wine sales partner for Wine Enthusiast magazine, this wine of the month club is a no-hassle way to try new red and white wines from around the world. The wine director at WineExpress, Josh Farrell, hand picks each wine for their subscriptions.

What We Like

WineExpress is the retail arm of Wine Enthusiast Magazine. Who better to select the best wines for a wine of the month club than a company that rates wine?

Improvements

It's been a long time since we received a shipment from WineExpress, but the last ones we received we felt sent out an uninspiring selection of wine (medium- to large-production and widely available) and were priced too close to retail to be considered a good deal. We'd like to see them include previously-shipped wines on their wine club pages.

Full Ratings Breakdown

If you drink at least one bottle of wine each week, and you like high-quality wines, AND you like both red wine and white wine (boy, that’s a lot of “and”s!), we think you’ll love this wine club. Each month you receive six bottles (that’s the current month’s three red wines from the Rich Reds Wine Club and the month’s three white wines from the Winning Whites Wine Club) for just $89.95 (plus tax and shipping, of course) which is a 10% savings over the price of the other two wine clubs.

Unlike the other wine clubs from publishing companies (NY Times, Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Sunset Magazine, etc.) this wine club is owned by its publishing company (Wine Enthusiast Magazine). That changes all of the rules and expectations for this wine club... in the consumer’s favor.

All-Around Wine Club Rating:

At WineClubReviews.net we take an objective approach to our star ratings system. Our written reviews are very much subjective, based on our 9+ years of wine club review experience and our own ideas about what good wine and good value mean. The star ratings are based on 11 attributes that we feel define what a wine club should be. Here is how Firstleaf Wine Club stacks up on these traits.
