WINE CLUBS

winefestnews.comHere at winefestnews.com we have decided to be the only wine related organization NOT to start a wine club. Let’s see – do you really know of any major organization that does NOT have a wine club. It seems like if you are in the print business you, mandatorily, must start a wine club.

All we want to know is one of two things from those getting into this business. Are you getting one FREE bottle for every so many your “club” members buy? Or, is this turned out to be convenient way for the wineries to get rid of their inventory at huge discounts without the general public figuring it out?

And speaking of which, last random thought, if you are drinking a wine that has cost you $25 for the bottle, that’s a $1 an ounce. Obviously, a $100 bottle of wine amounts to $4 an ounce. Compared to beer which average from $.75 to $1 a bottle or cents per ounce and you realize you are really drinking liquid gold or least silver. So maybe you should put away that pouting face when gasoline prices zoom up to $3 a gallon since your wine habit is probably 3 to 21 times more expensive than gas…………and a lot more pleasurable!
