Vintage Picks

When it comes to wine shopping, we’ve all found ourselves aimlessly circling the Californian, Italian and Chilean aisles, not sure where to touch down.

The newly launched Wine Collective hopes to alleviate some of that decision making with its monthly delivery service.

The process is easy: Sign up online, choose from four different packages (starting at $42.50 per month for the Jacques Cartier two-bottle up to $295 per month for the Oenophile four-bottle package), and sit back while you anxiously await the delivery of the good stuff.

Each package comes with an in-depth review of the wine including its history, food pairing options and suggestions on how to experience the bottle. You’ll have to relinquish all control—the monthly deliveries are chosen by the experts without any input on your part.

Now your toughest decision is whether to open that second bottle (we say yes!).
