If you live in the Metro Atlanta area, there are several clubs you can join to taste new wines, learn more about wine and food pairings and meet other wine-lovers. Two are located in Atlanta proper, and Hinton's is located in Alpharetta, just a short drive away. Many Atlanta bistros and wine bars don't host formal wine clubs but still offer tastings and other events, so check your local restaurants and wine shops, too.
Atlanta Wine Club
The Atlanta Wine Club is based at Vineyard's Wine Market. Club members taste up to six wines at each monthly tasting and can then select two bottles to take home. Members also get a monthly newsletter with pairing tips and other information, plus discounts at Vineyard's on cases of wines tasted each month.
WineStyles
WineStyles has three locations in Atlanta. Its wine club has two levels of membership, offering two or three bottles per month. Club membership also includes member newsletters and discounts and invitations to members-only tastings and other events.
Hinton's Wine Store Wine Club
Hinton's Wine Store Wine Club offers five levels of membership for wine lovers. Memberships include at least two bottles of wine a month from around the world, as well as tasting notes, recipes that would go well the wines and invitations to special tastings and events.
