Best wine of the month club?
I'm looking to get a half a year wine of the month club as a wedding present... I'm curious if anyone would be willing to advise me on which wine of the month club has the best wine. Appreciate it.
I hope this is the right area for this type of question... I know chowhound had a wine of the month club in a recent "presents" column, and that looked good--if anyone doesn't have any other ideas. Okay that's it =] (this is my second post, btw!)

It really depends upon the wines that the bride and groom like . . . .but I'd look at K&L Wine Merchants, The Spanish Table, and/or Vintage Berkeley/Solano Cellars.

I am interested in doing the same (for myself!) and checked out these recs. Problem is they don't ship to PA which is where I am. Any suggestions for a wine of the month club that does deliver to PA? What with PA's totally arcane LCB laws this might be kind of tricky. Thanks!

There are none that do -- it's the laws of Pennsylvania that are the problem. They prohibit direct shipments of wine to an individual from out-of-state.

But then again, as I've said before, I'm not the biggest fan of these "wine(s)-of-the-month club" annyway -- but that's me. YMMV.

KL wines is quite good because their wines are normally very very well priced. You don't want to join a wine club that their wines in store are generally more expensive because such costs end up being forced upon you at the wine club.

If I was going to join a wine club, it would be K&L
