with the perfect wine:

Take the QUIZ

  • "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
  • "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 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 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
  • "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
  • "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
  • "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

    This co-op owned winery is comprised of 160 growers who produce in Aragon, a province known for its dramatic landscapes. This wine is a modern style, full of ripe raspberries and kitchen spice. Pairs nicely with tapas.

    FYI • Tres Ojos means "three eyes"

  • Sagelands
    Sagelands
    Sagelands

    Sourced from three vineyard sites on the arid side of Washington state. This crowd pleaser is full of rich, ripe fruit, notably raspberries, cherries, and a touch of vanilla. Its silky finish helps it pair nicely with most things off the BBQ.

    Grape • Merlot
    Place • Columbia Valley, Washington
    FYI • Columbia Valley contains 99% of WA's vineyards.

  • Dom Bousquet UOC

    Working with estate fruit from a variety of areas in the Uco Valley, this unoaked chardonnay is delightfully full of white peach and granny smith notes. Perfect as an aperitif or paired with your favorite salad.

    Grape • Chardonnay
    Place • Mendoza, Argentina
    FYI • 80% of Argentina's wine comes from Mendoza.

Gooder®

a touch of pedigree

  • Montenigo Valpolicella
    Montenigo Valpolicella
    Montenigo Valpolicella

    This is the counterpoint to the massive Amarone that this region is so famous for. With light refreshing notes of Morello cherry and persistent minerality, this is more reminiscent of a Cru Beaujolais. Pair with your favorite chicken dish.

    Grape • Corvina, Rondinella
    Place • Veneto, Italy
    FYI • This is the largest wine producing region in Italy.

  • Massi di Mandorlaia I Massi
    Massi di Mandorlaia I Massi
    Massi di Mandorlaia I Massi

    One of Tuscany's lesser-known DOCG's make this a perfect find for those looking for hidden gems. A blend of the Sangiovese and Bordeaux varietals, this complex wine has aromas of dried cherry, licorice, and herbs. Pairs well with game meats.

    Grape • Sangiovese, Alicante, Merlot, Cabernet
    Place • Tuscany, Italy
    FYI • The medieval village of Scansano is nearby.

  • Juve & Camps Cava
    Juve & Camps Cava
    Juve & Camps Cava

    The fiery and independent Catalonian spirit is captured by this family-owned winery located just northeast of Barcelona. Founded in 1797, this iconic producer is known for the great minerality of their wines. Pairs well with many dishes but particularly Mediterranean as well as pork sausage and picada.

    Grape • Xarello, Macabeo, Parellada
    Place • Catalonia, Spain
    FYI • Cava was originally called xampan.

Goodest®

as good as it gets

  • Elk Cove Estate
    Elk Cove Estate
    Elk Cove Estate

    Before Oregon was on the map there was Elk Cove. Founded in the early 70's by Pat and Joe Campbell it enjoys some of the best vineyard sites in Ellamette. Look for cooked bing cherries, violets, and kitchen spice with a hint of cherry tobacco. Pairs well with duck breast and cherry sauce.

    Grape • Pinot Noir
    Place • Willamette Valley, Oregon
    FYI • Willamette Valley is 150-miles long.

  • Fritz Haag Trocken Braunberg
    Fritz Haag Trocken Braunberg
    Fritz Haag Trocken Braunberg

    The amount of history surrounding the vineyards that produce the grapes for this wine go back nearly 500 years. Today the Haag family continue to excel at making the very best their microclimate has to offer. This wine is all about dry - mineral - slate. A marriage of pork and fresh herbs will do best with this.

    Grape • Riesling
    Place • Mosel, Germany
    FYI • Braunberg means "brown mountain".

  • Protos Crianza
    Protos Crianza
    Protos Crianza

    There are few Spanish producers as iconic as Protos. Before 1982 when they allowed others to use it, their name was literally that of the region - Ribera del Duero. Today their winery is at the cutting edge of all things wine related. This excellent offering is aromatic with black fruit notes. Pairs well with grilled meat.

    Grape • Tempranillo
    Place • Ribera del Duero, Spain
    FYI • Protos is from the Greek word "first".
