If you love wine, but don’t love the process of schlepping to the store to pick something out that you may or may not love, this deal might be for you. Wine club Winc now has a summer special where you can get four bottles of wine, customized to your palate, for less than $7 a bottle with code MWSMWINC. And though Winc is a wine club, you can cancel anytime.
What we like about the deal: The price is right, and many reviewers love Winc. Business Insider named it the best overall wine club, with its reviewer noting that, “If you want to discover your next favorite wine without spending a lot of money or pulling your hair out over its complexities, there’s no better place than Winc.” Forbes, too, praises it, noting that Winc is the most accessible wine club, with a “very user-friendly” site that has “straightforward information about plans, the wine selection process, and pricing.” Winc will give you recommendations but you can also pick your own wines, and you can cancel this deal at any time, or skip months if you don’t want wine then.

What are the wines like? The company works with many winemakers worldwide to create its hundreds of bottles, and you can expect lots of variety, from Grenache to Sauvignon Blanc to Merlot and Pinot Noir, all curated by Winc’s team. The selection gets refreshed based on user feedback.: You, and other subscribers, can rate each bottle that you get.
How does Winc work? To get started with Winc, you take a one-minute palate profile quiz, and from there, Winc gives you recommendations you might like. “The idea of a profile quiz may seem gimmicky, but Winc’s method is far savvier than simply ticking a box for white or red. It’s designed to assess the subtleties of the palate, and asks about things like coffee preferences, whether citrus or earthy notes in food get a thumbs up or down, and degrees of adventurous eating. And, most importantly, the short exercise seems to work,” Forbes writes of Winc.

Other things to consider: Winc will not ship to P.O. boxes or to the following states: Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Delaware, Hawaii, Kentucky, Michigan, Mississippi, New Jersey, Rhode Island, South Dakota and Utah. You can only get this offer if you are a new Winc member, and it is a wine club (which can be annoying) so be sure to cancel if you’re not a fan of the wines you get.
Bottom line: If you’re picky about wine and know exactly what you want in a wine, this deal isn’t for you. But if you’re more adventurous and want to try new things, at $7 a bottle, this deal may be worth a shot.
