I’m about to receive my third case after joining the club last year.

Overall I’ve been very impressed with the quality of the wine, its not spectacular (at £5 a bottle including delivery one shouldn’t expect too much) but for everyday drinking the case offers something different, interesting and very good quality- several have been outstanding.

I understand some may think that we (wine lovers and experienced buyers) should not be letting others choose our wine, but I enjoy receiving a mixed case of wines that I have not previously tried, there's an element of excitement to it, and as long as the quality remains I will stick with it.

Here are the details of my May delivery if anyone is interested.

Shez- £60, free delivery, every three months, skip or cancel when you want.

You get the first introductory case for £40, after that they let you have the other cases at -10%, and if you like a certain wine in the mixed case and go back to the site to buy more you also 10% reduction (they send you a code)- if the case is already in the sale this can prove quite a bargain.

More info here.

Yeah, I quite like the suspense as well. My intro case was great, but then they kept trying to send me R&W mixed rather than all white. Pulled my CC in the end. Avery's sometimes do a "mystery" case. Guaranteed value and a random chance of a "special bottle" in it. Seems to have been discontinued though.
