Wine Of The Month Club

My husband and I received a wonderful gift from a couple that had stayed at our home for a weekend. They enrolled us in a wine of the month club. This has been a wonderful gift. The wine of the month club sends out two bottles of wine to our home each month. My husband is not a wine drinker and he started to wonder what we were going to do with that many bottles on wine. I told him that I was going to incorporate the membership of the wine of the month club with my membership in a book club.

I went to my next book club meeting carrying the two bottles of wine that had arrived by mail from the wine of the month club. The members of my book club were more than happy to help me consume the wine. We decided to read a book that centered on wine making for the next month. That meeting was scheduled to be at my house. Due to commitments that members had we ended up having to postpone meeting for seven weeks.

By the date of our book club meeting the wine of the month club had made two deliveries to our house. This meant I had 4 bottles of wine to share as we discussed our book. The book was based on the lives of family members that were in the wine business. The ironic thing was that a wine of the month club was mentioned in the book. The evening of our meeting was cool so I started a fire in the fireplace and set out appetizers and different wine glasses to sample the four bottles from. This was the longest and loudest book club meeting any of us could remember. We also had the most fun. We all agreed that the wine of the month club added to our enjoyment of the book club.

The wine of the month club membership is quite reasonable. Our book club members have agreed that we will join as a group so that we will have new wines to sample at all of our meetings. By joining the wine of the month club we are taking care of part of our refreshments for the hostess of each meeting. We are also enjoying our selves and the great tasting wines. There have been some wines that are sent from the wine of the month club that I personally do not like, but they do not go to waste when it is shared in a group setting. We have started keeping track of which wines we enjoy the most from the wine of the month club, so that we can purchase them for other occasions.
