"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 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 -
"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 -
"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
-
"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
-
"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
-
"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
-
"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

Carro TintoCarro TintoSeñorio de Barahonda was founded in 1925 and has some of the oldest monastrell vineyards in Spain. The chalk and limestone soil help push the full-bodied nature of the grape and so this red really delivers. Look for notes of blackberry, plum, and anise. Pairs well with items off the grill.
Grape • Monastrell, Syrah
Place • Yecla, Spain
FYI • Monastrell is known as mourvedre in France. -
Carpineto DogajoloCarpineto DogajoloCarpineto was founded in 1967 by two mavericks who saw great potential in showing the world wines from Tuscany. This medium-bodied wine is full of aromatics and exotic fruit. Pair with chicken and fish.
Grape • Sangiovese
Place • Tuscany, Italy
FYI • Dogajolo means "stave" in Italian. -

Damilano Barbera d'AstiDamilano Barbera d'AstiThe soil of Asti is particularly well-suited for this varietal. The first vintage from Damilano was a very recent 2008. A lively red meant to enjoy young (so forget about the cellar) it has a gorgeous purple color and tastes of red currant, bing cherry, and vanilla. Try it with charcuterie.
Grape • Barbera
Place • Piedmont, Italy
FYI • The area of Asti is also known for sparkling wine. -
Dom. l'Ecu Muscadet Sevre et Maine GneissDom. l'Ecu Muscadet Sevre et Maine GneissThis wine is in hot demand. Expressive minerality is courtesy of the soil for which this wine is named after. Look for citrus notes and a hint of salinity on the finish. Outstanding with shellfish.
Grape • Melon De Bourgogne
Place • Loire, France
FYI • Gneiss are rocks with a distinctive band. -
Osmote DeChaunacOsmote DeChaunacOsmote began in 2014 as a tenant winery within a bigger facility. Today it is on a 31-acre property overlooking Seneca Lake in upstate NY. Made from the seldom seen DeChaunac grape, this is a red that can be served slightly chilled. Light red fruit notes, it's perfect for the Thanksgiving table.
Grape • DeChaunac
Place • Finger Lakes, New York
FYI • DeChaunac is a French/American hybrid grape.

Merry Edwards Sauvignon BlancMerry Edwards Sauvignon BlancConsidered one of the best expressions of sauvignon blanc in the United States. It's the ability of the wine to evoke emotion that places it in the pantheon of America's great wines. "Warmth of a midday sun", striking as a tall sunflower", "rich as the feeling of a good laugh" are attempts to describe this wine. Enjoy.
Grape • Sauvignon Blanc
Place • Sonoma County, California
FYI • Edwards is a trailblazer who started wine making in 1974.
