A dark red wine bottle resting in a cellar rack

The wine club

Every month, a box of Marlborough wine you could not have bought yourself, because the people who made it don’t sell to the public. Chosen by our sommelier, collected here or couriered once we’re licensed.

Join the clubWhat's in the box

Wines with no cellar door

At least two bottles a month come from producers who sell nowhere the public can reach. Small blocks, small volumes, and no shop of their own.

Notes worth reading

Each box carries a written card: who grew it, which block, what they were trying to do, and what to eat with it. Written here, not copied off a back label.

Pause whenever

Skip a month, change your tier, or stop entirely from your account. No minimum term and no conversation required.

Three sizes

Choose a box

Billed on the first of the month, ready to collect from the tenth. Every tier includes 10% off anything else you buy in the shop.

Two bottles

The Pair

One white, one red, both from growers you won’t find in a supermarket.

How it runs

Simple on purpose.

Step one

Tell us what you drink

Reds only, no oak, nothing over $40, whatever your rule is, we'll work to it. You can change it any month.

Step two

We buy small and early

Because we know what the club needs, we can commit to a grower's whole allocation before it's bottled. That's how the wines get in the box at all.

Step three

Collect from the tenth

Pick it up any opening hour, and have a glass while you're here. Courier delivery opens the moment our remote seller's licence is confirmed.

Billed monthly, cancel any time

The fine print

Questions

Can I skip a month?

Yes, up to the last day of the previous month, as often as you like. Skipping doesn’t end your membership or lose you anything.

What if I don’t like something?

Bring the bottle back with at least half in it and swap it for anything of the same value in the shop. We’d genuinely rather know, it makes next month’s box better.

Can I give it as a gift?

Three, six and twelve-month gift memberships are available, and they don't roll over into a subscription when they end. Buy one on the gift cards page.

What happens if I don’t collect a box?

We hold it. Boxes stack up quite happily in the cellar and people collect two or three at once after a busy month, nothing expires and nothing is forfeited.

Once a month, no more

New arrivals, first refusal.

We release library bottles and tasting seats to the list before they go public. That's the whole pitch.
