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.

GBThis is so much more than a wine club! This is so much more than a wine club! We did a food and wine tasting at Roscioli restaurant in Rome in 2019 and from there became members of the wine club. This club is filled with passionate and knowledgeable people. During the pandemic they held virtual wine tastings to maintain the connection. The amount of information provided with the shipments makes opening each bottle such an experience! It also is nice to know that we will be getting excellent bottles of wine in each shipment.

GBThank you! Living in Pennsylvania my choice of Italian wines is limited by the offerings our liquor control board. The Roscioli wine club provides me with a chance to drink wines that I could only dream of having! I am a member for life. Thank you,thank you,thank you!

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.

GBThe Roscioli shipment is a highlight of… The Roscioli shipment is a highlight of our year!! There’s nothing quite like fabulous wine delivered to your door to really get you excited!! We look forward to the two shipments and treasure drinking every single bottle. The payment plan makes it easy to digest the cost, too. The descriptions via QR code are simple to access, and each bottle is an adventure. It has gotten our cooking more varied too as we try to make something to complement the wine. And, their customer service is unsurpassed when we needed it. Bravo and grazie!!
