Very sensible pricing for most of the everyday wines. It's always interesting to see the "Fine Wine" astronomical prices, too! Service is good, the free delivery is a real bonus. And there are alwa... See more

Written by the company

Founded in 1874, The Wine Society is the world’s oldest member-owned community of wine lovers. We put our members before profit to ensure fairer bottle prices for both the people that enjoy them, and for those who make them. Because we don’t need to keep external shareholders happy, we’re able to put profits back into lower prices and services, so our members get exceptional quality in every bottle they buy.

Traditional good service

Unlike almost all other mail order companies, The Wine Society not only has an excellent website that works first time, but can also be contacted by telephone which is answered very quickly and you can speak to a knowledgeable human being. Their service is second to none and their wine is always good.

All round excellence and value!

Very wide range of wines from all over the world, from very affordable to top of the range.
Efficient and free delivery anywhere in the UK especially from their own vans. This includes single bottle orders (which encourages being adventurous). Excellent customer service.

Long time membership

The upsides are value for money and good customer service when there are any problems.
The downside is the relentless flood of emails extolling the virtues of every wine under the sun. The Society should be more selective and more honest in what it recommends and not just appear to be sales-led.
