GBWrapping up my 1st year as a member… Wrapping up my 1st year as a member (Wine Club 1 - Standard Assortment), I've been quite happy overall with my experience. What I enjoy most is being exposed to wines that I might not otherwise try, or which I can't get in the US. Of the 24 bottles I've received thus far, I've finished 21. Of those, 1 was "molto buono." 8 were "buono" (i.e., I'd buy them again). 4 were "cosi cosi" (i.e., I'd drink them again, but might not buy again them unless they were on sale). And 8 were "assolutamente no" (i.e., I wouldn't buy them again). My "scores" are based on my tastes. I don't think any of the wines were of poor quality. They just didn't "trip my trigger". Has it been worth the average cost of $31.25/bottle? Yes...so far. It looks like prices are going up 11% for 2024, so I'll see how the wines are this year and decide if I want to continue my membership. My wife and I visited Rome last Fall (we stayed at Hotel Ponte Sisto, just around the corner from Rimessa Roscioli. I'd reached out to Roscioli prior to our trip (as they frequently ask us to do in their various updates and notifications) to let them know we'd be in town, but I never heard back. Unfortunately, we were only in town for 2 nights and had made dinner arrangements at other restaurants on our "favorites" list, so we were unable to "pop in" at Roscioli's restaurant for dinner. Ci vediamo la prossima volta, forse. In closing, it would be wonderful if Roscioli would add the winery's website for each wine they send out. While I love the reviews Roscioli provides via the QR code on each bottle, I always go out and find the winery's website to further expand my knowledge of each wine.

GBRome visit We did a wine tasting and dinner when we visited Rome in May 2023. Really enjoyed the experience and joined the wine club. Love the QR codes on the bottles that give you info on the wine, the producer, food pairings and recipes.

GBLove Roscioli! Love this club. Great Italian wines locally sourced that expand my knowledge and love of wines I would never have been exposed to in the states. Thoughtful family business and personalized care make this the only wine club you will ever need!

GBLearned of Roscioli after stumbling… Learned of Roscioli after stumbling upon it wondering around Rome. After really liking the stores, restaurant, and cooking classes, we signed up for the wine club. The wines are varied and the information about each of them is wonderful and complete. It is great to taste smaller vineyards around Italy and to learn more about my own tastes.

GBWorth every penny - this club literally pays for itself I have WAY too many great things to say about this club. In US dollars I pay roughly $1200 for wine club level 2. Without even getting into how fantastic the wines are, in addition to the wines you also receive perks like 2 wine classes a month (I live in NYC) which on RESY are $50 pp - right there the club pays for itself. Lovely experience at Roscioli in NYC - 3 wine pours paired along with some nibbles and conversation about the wines. You also receive a wine dinner for 2 (which I still have to reserve, thanks for the reminder, self!) The perks alone are worth the price of admission to the club. Now on to the wines themselves. Truly fantastic and Italian wines that aren't mass produced. Can't easily be found at your local wine shop. I appreciate the accompanying QR code that allows me further info on each wine along with videos from the producer. Super helpful also as I was running off to a friends and wanted to bring a bottle along for dinner. I checked the QR code on each and found which was optimal (which was great as the one I initially grabbed suggested I wait a few years before opening!)
