Looking for the Best Wine Subscription Box? Here Are 19, So You Never Need to Leave Home for a New Bottle

Most Personalized

Cost: from $13/bottle

What you get: A monthly subscription of expert-picked domestic and international bottles

Why we love it: Before you start sipping, Winc will have you fill out a six-question questionnaire that will determine your palate profile. Based on the results, their resident experts recommend four vinos that you’re sure to love. From there, you can make swaps or additions based on the assortment. Plus, new wines are added to the site daily, so you can try something fresh from the vineyard every month. And, best of all, you can rate your wines after trying them to make sure your next shipment of wine is an even better fit for your tastes.

Best for the Globalist

Cost: from $40 every three months

What you get: Two estate-bottled wines, each from a different international winery

Why we love it: Not only do you get two wines from award-winning vineyards, but you also receive tasting notes, a rundown on the winemakers, pairing suggestions and the chance to order more of any bottle you like at a deep discount.

Best for Eco Wine Lovers

Cost: from $89 per half case

What you get: Six full-size bottles, delivered each time you shop

Why we love it: For people who have hectic travel schedules and/or can't be troubled to remember to pause subscriptions, this half-case situation, delivered in single orders is a blessing. Another bonus is the search bar that lets you screen wines for sulfites, added sugars, pesticides and preservatives.

Best for Instagrammers

Cost: from $80 per month

What you get: 12 bottles, each holding roughly a large glass of wine

Why we love it: Like a glass of wine after work or with dinner but don't want to open a whole bottle? Then you're the target market for Usual Wines, a wine company we've seen all over social media. Usual makes 6.3-ounce bottles of wine labeled by color and style rather than terroir. The Red, Rosé, Brut or other wines are made in small batches in California, and much is made of the sustainable farming styles and production means. And yay, there's only a two-month minimum sign-up, so we appreciate the nod to the commitment-phobes among us.

Best for Reverse Wine Snobs

Cost: $74 per box

What you get: One box per month, which equals four bottles of wine

Why we love it: These boxes stay fresh for up to six weeks after opening, so they're nice to have on hand in case you're not sure who'll be having wine with dinner all week—or if friends drop by unexpectedly. You choose between wine profiles (one box tends toward more oaky, another skews fruity) and the wine is shipped straight from the makers in Napa. Oh, and the little wooden boxes look cute nestled in the fridge.

Most Scientific Pairing Method

Cost: $100/month

What you get: Four vinos from around the world, tailored to your taste

Why we love it: All that’s standing between you and six tasty new bottles? An interactive, seven-question survey about your food and beverage preferences. Based on your answers, the team at Bright Cellars will match you with six top wines from around the world using Bright Points, an 18-attribute scoring system that creates customized wine ratings based on how compatible they are with your preferences. Then, six new wines you’re bound to love will be delivered to your door each month. It’s basically a personal matchmaker for your palate.

Best for Travelers

Cost: $49/month for three bottles or $79/month for six bottles

What you get: Your choice of red, white or a mix of both, shipped each month

Why we love it: The curators and sommeliers at Wine Awesomeness will handpick a selection of wines from all over the world and ship it to you each month. In addition to tasting them, you’ll also actually learn about each variety, thanks to a handy insert that tells the stories of each winemaker, teaches you how to describe the wines like a true professional and suggests food pairings for each. No quizzes or gimmicks necessary, just really good vino.

Most Educational

Cost: $90/month

What you get: Six wines from around the world, based on your flavor preferences

Why we love it: First of all, 92 percent of Firstleaf’s wines are award-winning. Secondly, they cut out the middleman by working directly with some of the world’s top vintners, so you know you’re getting the most bang for your buck. And with over 500,000 customer ratings on the site, their system can predict what wines you’ll want to sip without you even having to think about it. But the best part is the Wine School, a free online resource with lessons in everything from food pairings to tannins.

Best member perks

Cost: $40/month

What you get: One bottle of wine, plus $40 in credit and access to Angel Executive bottles, pre-released wines and more

Why we love it: Rather than delivering a shipment of mass-produced red or white every month, Naked Wines lets you support independent vintners.

Dip into your wine account to buy the bottles you want, when you want them.

Best for Indecisive Drinkers

Cost: from $29/shipment

What you get: A shipment of one to seven bottles of wine from across the globe

Why we love it: The customization options are endless with Cellars Wine Club: Choose from single bottles, varieties from specific regions or flavor profiles and highly rated bottles. If you’re not sure you’re into the whole commitment thing, you can even select how many months you want to try it for (even if that’s just one).

Best Complete Self-Care Package

Cost: $60 every three months

What you get: A box of fun, wellness- and wine-related products, plus two bottles of vino

Why we love it: More than just a wine delivery, Vine Oh! is like a self-care subscription box based around your favorite reds, whites or rosés. You’ll get everything from wine glasses to candles to eye masks (and of course, wine)—that’s more than $183 worth of goodies for just $60.

Best for picky drinkers

Cost: $15 for mini bottle tasting kit, then $13/bottle afterwards

What you get: A tasting kit of six white and red wines to try, followed by full bottles based on your flavor preferences

Every shipment contains six 500-milliliter bottles of wine (which are two-thirds the size of a typical bottle) to encourage sharing and pairing with a specific Blue Apron meal for two. Plus, true to the brand’s ethos, you’ll receive tasting notes, pairing tips and a story behind each wine.

Cost: from $70 every three months, plus $20 shipping

What you get: 12 wines tailored to your personal tastes, delivered every three months

Wall Street Journal Wines also often runs promotions for free additional bottles (yes, please) and allows you to select from white, red or a mix.

Best Celebrity Endorsement

Cost: from $7/bottle

What you get: 12 bottles hand-picked by Martha Stewart (!!!) and shipped to you every 12 weeks.

What you get: Three, six or 12 of the newest wines and top seasonal selections shipped to your door every quarter

Why we love it: We appreciate a good bottle of wine, but don't always love the high price that comes along with it.
