Vinebox 12 Days of Wine: An advent calendar for the wine explorer. wine redwine whitewine
Confession: I regard subscription services with extreme skepticism, especially when their marketing borders on the ideological. Wine and spirits subscription services often have the double-whammy of smarmy claims about health benefits . But even if they do not, I am not an easy sell.
“Nice” contains a range of reds and whites from France, Spain and Italy for the most part; they are generously proportioned and diverse without being nutsy. Since these are pre-selected single servings, there’s not really much point to reviewing them individually-the collection works as a whole. The inclusions seem thoughtful. The whites tend to be weightier ones and the reds are interesting .
As much as I would be unlikely to become a Vinebox subscriber just because it’s not my preferred way to explore-I 100% recommend this as a gift. The 12 Nights of Wine box will set you back about $130.00, which isn’t nothing and perhaps suggests this isn’t the acknowledgement-token type of gift you give the UPS man .
If I were to complain about Vinebox, I guess what I’d say is this isn’t for everyone, but what is? I’m past impatient with the idea that we should have our experiences “curated” for us, and I think a person could be forgiven for pointing out that Vinebox isn’t exactly helping to foster an adventurous deep-diver mentality.
But the 12 Nights of Wine gift box has broad appeal for a reason-most people just dig diversity of choice, and it’s fun to have 12 different single-serving wines to discover.
