What comes in my Wine Club membership?

Each month, you’ll receive four hand-selected bottles chosen to help you discover wines you may not find on the grocery store shelf. We focus on thoughtfully made wines from smaller producers, with an emphasis on responsible farming and minimal additives.

Your membership also includes virtual tasting notes and seasonal pairing ideas.

When will my Wine Club wines arrive?

Wine Club deliveries go out on the first Saturday of each month.

Local delivery is available in New Kent, Richmond, and the Northern Neck. Shipping is also available throughout Virginia.

All wine deliveries and shipments require an adult signature from someone age 21 or older.

When do I need to join to receive the next Wine Club delivery?

Join by the 20th of the month to receive the following month’s selection.

For example, join by August 20 to receive the September delivery.

If you miss the deadline, feel free to reach out. If we can still fit you into that month’s delivery, we will.

Can I pause, skip, or cancel my membership?

Yes. You can pause, skip a month, or cancel your membership through your account.

Can I choose only red or white wines?

At this time, the Wine Club is intentionally curated as a mix of reds, whites, rosés, bubbles, and seasonal surprises.

Part of the fun is discovering bottles you might not have chosen for yourself.

Do you include pairing suggestions?

Yes. Each Wine Club delivery includes virtual tasting notes with information about the wines and seasonal pairing ideas.

Can I reorder a wine I loved?

Usually!

Many of our wines are produced in smaller quantities, so availability can change quickly. If you fall in love with something, reach out and we’ll see whether we can source more.

You can also check the Bottle Shop, where member favorites and current cellar selections may be available.

Do you sell individual bottles?

Yes. Our Bottle Shop features a rotating selection of wines currently available from the Cork & Courier cellar.

You can build your own order, try something new, or stock up on a favorite without joining the Wine Club.

How does local delivery work?

We offer local delivery in New Kent, Richmond, and the Northern Neck.

Free local delivery is available on orders of four or more bottles. Smaller orders may include a delivery fee.

Because wine delivery schedules vary by area, your exact delivery timing will depend on your location.

Do you ship wine?

Yes. We ship throughout Virginia.

Someone age 21 or older must be available to sign for the delivery.

What if I’m not home when my wine arrives?

Alcohol deliveries require an adult signature from someone age 21 or older.

For shipped orders, the carrier will provide information about additional delivery attempts or available pickup options if no one is home.

For local delivery, we’ll coordinate delivery timing with you whenever possible.

How do you choose the wines?

I look for wines from smaller producers that are thoughtfully made, interesting without being intimidating, and genuinely worth bringing home.

We prioritize responsible farming, minimal intervention, and bottles that offer something more interesting than the typical grocery store shelf.

My goal is simple: to ruin grocery store wine for you forever.

Do you offer private tastings?

Yes. Cork & Courier offers relaxed, guided wine tastings designed around your group and your table.

Private tastings are great for girls’ nights, birthdays, client gatherings, and anyone who wants to learn a little more about wine without making it feel like a class.

Can you help me choose wine for a party or larger order?

Absolutely.

If you’re planning a dinner, party, corporate event, or larger gathering, reach out with your guest count, budget, and what you’re serving. We can help you choose wines and source larger quantities when available.

Can I give Cork & Courier as a gift?

Yes. Wine, Wine Club memberships, and curated selections can all make great gifts.

Availability and delivery options may vary, so contact us if you’d like help putting something together.
