Five of the Best Booze Subscriptions For the Holidays

For the sustainability lover: Plonk Wine Club

Started in 2016 by a Wine Enthusiast 40 under 40 nominee, Etty Lewensztain, Plonk Wine Club aims to connect its participants with unique bottles made by small, sustainably-minded producers all over the world. The club also aims to shine a spotlight on grapes that are sometimes overlooked, like Nero d’Avola and Zweigelt.

If the person you’re shopping for loves to explore a variety of styles, consider trying the “Mixed Wine Club,” option. Each month, they’ll receive four or 12 bottles (depending on what they decide) of organic, biodynamic or limited-production red, white, rosé or sparkling wines.

Or if the recipient has a preferred style, they can also take advantage of both the “White Wine Club” or the “Red Wine Club,” which offer four or 12 bottles from around the globe.

If you are giving the subscription as a gift, you have the option of creating a personal message that will be sent to the recipient via email or in a printable PDF format.
