North Berkeley Wine Clubs

North Berkeley Wine Clubs represent our finest wines from France and Italy, handpicked for you each month by our expert staff. Becoming a member is like having your own personal wine buyer!

And frankly, you couldn't pick a more knowledgeable guide to the best wines of Europe. Over the past 20 years we’ve built solid relationships with winemakers to bring you only the best. We’ve tasted each wine multiple times, from fresh must under the press to young wine freshly bottled, to ensure each is the purest expression of terroir we can find. Many of these wines are exclusive to North Berkeley Wine: they are unique bottles that with the generous help of the winemaker, we’ve selected to bring you only the best.

Unlike other clubs that are more interested in volume than quality, our clubs have been created with your discerning taste in mind. Our producers, who often grow their own grapes and harvest by hand, craft only a limited quantity of cases each year. Whether you want to learn more about wine, add bottles to your cellar or give a distinctive gift, we have the Club for you!

Each Club shipment contains 3 bottles, usually two red wines and one white wine. (Club Mediterranean is an all red-wine club.) We will also include detailed notes on each wine, with information on regional history, winemaking techniques, pairing suggestions and cellaring recommendations. And as a Club member, if you'd like to buy additional bottles, you'll receive a special 15% discount!

Club Mediterranean

$50 per shipment: Club Med makes it easy to become an expert while you taste your way through great wine values from the world's top winemakers. This club is an all red-wine club. For example, you'll experience spicy Grenache from the Rhône Valley, Sangiovese from the sun-kissed Tuscan countryside, or bold Cabernet Sauvignon from California's Alexander Valley. Detailed tasting notes will familiarize you with regions, grape varietals and our favorite winemakers.

Club Beaune

$75 per shipment: If you love Burgundy like we do, this is the club for you! Club Beaune features the best Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from this historic region in France, from the gustatory capital of Dijon to the bucolic hills of Beaujolais. Not only will you taste exemplary wines from our favorite producers in the Côte d’Or, but also impressive and rare wines from artisan winemakers in the Côte Chalonnaise and the Mâconnais.

Club Terroir

$75 per shipment: Best translated as a “sense of place,” terroir is integral to a wine’s personality. With Club Terroir, you’ll travel with all your senses around the globe to experience what makes wine unique—whether Aglianico raised on Italian volcanic soil or Syrah from wind-swept California slopes. You’ll learn about rare Italian varietals; you’ll marvel at the change in Pinot Noir from different Burgundy appellations. Club notes will include vineyard details, winemaking techniques and vintage specifics.

Club Grand Cru

$250 per shipment: Club Grand Cru features the very best in red and white premier and grand cru Burgundy, Champagne and Alsatian wines as well as elite Rhône wines and “Super Tuscans.” These limited-production wines are always exclusive North Berkeley Wine selections, wines our expert buyers have tasted in cask and worked with the winemaker to bottle unfined and unfiltered. Club Grand Cru will bring you some of the best wines in the world!
