Even doctors recommend drinking a glass of wine a day because it is actually good for your health. It greatly reduces risks of getting a major heart disease. The best thing about wine is that it fits all price ranges. I can't tell you how many times I've bought wine just because I didn't have enough money for a 6 pack of beer.
With the popularity of wine on the increase, it won't be hard to begin your own wine club. The main idea is to find other people who are also same love for wine like you and set a time and day that you can get all together on a regular basis - usually once a month.
So now that you want to start your own wine club, the first thing is to find someone who truly likes being somewhat of the 'leader'. This individual must be the best when it comes to organization and things of that nature.
Now I understand that you want your group to be the largest almost from the beginning, but just like every thing good, you have to work your way up. I suggest you start off with a handful of people. If you can do it well with a small group of people, you'll learn how to manager a much larger group.
So do you want to know how you will get to drink new delicious wines every 30 days. The information can be found everywhere, including on the internet, wine magazines and don't forget your local wine or wine making shop.
So after the wine, get some wine glasses for your club members. They are cheap and as a leader, they will truly make you stand out. After all, when you start something good, start it right!
So it's your first meeting, what should you talk about? Start off with the basics, and work your way around. Talk about wine making 101 first. See if you start off with the basics, your members will learn more and therefore have more fun. So talking about grapes and yeast and stuff like that would be a great starter.
Make your meeting more fun by creating different wine games. A lot of wine clubs have wine rating cards, where each member rates the wine in their own way and than you compare all the ratings together. I guess you can call it playing wine games.
It's a natural process for human beings to gather in groups and discuss subjects of interest. There is so much to learn about wines that your club will never be at a loss about what to discuss and learn. Enjoy!
Why are wine clubs begun? There are any number of reasons. Perhaps it is because they get special pricing available only to members of a wine club, perhaps they want to take advantage of the variety available every month, and some form because of the social interaction and sharing their favorites with their friends.
A wine club will explore wines from other countries and will receive information about varieties, vintages, and wineries from around the world. Many of the makers of wine go back for generations. There are wine clubs all over the world, France, Australia, Italy, Spain, and the United States.
There are wine clubs that just started and there are those that have been going for more than one hundred years. Most of the time those that join the clubs are balanced in knowledge and experience without considering the age of the club that they join. Within these clubs comes advise about the proper way to prepare the glasses, tasting methods, winemaking tips, and what wines go best with what foods etc.
Many times the owners of a particular winery will start a wine club devoted to their wine. They can give out early information about their own product. Have early taste tests and give out early information about their harvests so that their enthusiasts can look forward to knowing early on what they have to look forward to. Often this will also lead to the members being offered certain wines that the rest of the public will not have access to, and very likely at reduced prices.
There is a club that has sampled over one hundred different wines! Their discussions become quite lively. Each of the members have tasted over one hundred different wines so the total ranges in the several hundred range with some overlap but possibly not too much.
At the end of the day these clubs provide the many different members with the know how and background of some of the most passionate and well informed makers and drinkers of wine. The amount of information out there is tremendous.
Because of the Internet and the ease of email the sharing of opinions has become simplified. There have been debates about the best vintage, vineyards, the best soil, climates, etc. Political disagreements may actually pale in comparison.
As far as we have been able to tell no wars have broken out over the debate although there has been rumored that the grape has been responsible in part for more than one. The next time you are invited to a wine tasting party or invited to join a wine club just remember the purpose is to have fun and enjoy the wine!
