Wine clubs are springing up all over the country - not only because of our heartfelt fondness for wine, but also because of a basic need to gather and discuss subjects that are dear to us.
More people are becoming interested in wine and how to choose them since it has been deemed good for our health by medical experts. Wine is priced for every pocketbook. Just because a wine is less expensive, doesn't mean it won't hold up in taste to the priciest ones.
Because of the increase in the popularity of wine, starting your wine club won't be difficult. The basic idea is to find others who are also interested in wine and pick a time and day that you can get together on a regular basis - usually once a month.
Select a leader to get things going and plan the meetings. Next, you need to put the word out to others about what you're doing. The members that you've chosen for your club should b passionate in their devotion to wine and reliable in attendance.
When you begin the club, limit your membership. Too many members will lessen the possibility of developing a close camaraderie with others in the club.
Suggestions for monthly wine selections are readily available from wine enthusiast magazines or online articles about new and innovative wines. Choose one person to be in charge of gathering the wines. The bill can be split later.
You'll also want to have a nice selection of wine glasses on hand. They can be inexpensive, but be sure that you have enough so that each person has his own glass for each type of wine that you've selected.
Great selections of wines at great prices are offered by online wine clubs. It's a good idea to start with good domestic wine. What you can do is find out about grapes, vineyards, and production methods that are used for your selected wines and you can discuss them during the meeting.
Remember to focus on the educational aspect of the wines. You'll need rating charts that are available at wine shops, on line and through wine magazines. Each of your members will be rating the characteristics of the wines. To see if you all agree, you can compare them.
For human beings, gathering in groups and discussing subjects of interest is a natural process. When it comes to wine, there's a lot to learn and your club will always have something to discuss about. Have fun!
