🚀 Wine Spies: The best wine, uncovered
A collection of the best exclusive & undercover wines | Drop #85
How can you find the right bottle? This week’s startup is delivering the rarest and most exceptional wines to your inbox - but they only give one wine a day.
⚾ The Elevator Pitch
Between 2008 and 2010, the wine industry has seen some peak changes, $30 billion worth in both domestic and international wines, with predictable long-term sales growth by up to 6%. With so much wine, it can be hard to sift through the choice to find the best ones.
Wine Spies is on a mission to uncover the world’s best deals on great wines. Each day they offer one wine at a huge discount - up to 70% off. It’s not a club. There’s no commitment to buy anything. Just one wine a day, one great deal.
Wine Spies’ moat is their long-standing ties in Sonoma County, CA (wine central) since 2007. Their connections run DEEP. This allows them to get wines nobody else would ever come across. Best yet, bottles are stored in a temperature-controlled warehouse until they’re ready to ship to you.

🔍 Why we like it
✌️From 1 to 3,000 wines evaluated per year
Founded in 2007, Wine Spies has seen massive growth in the direct consumer market. It is not just because of wine itself, but because they pride themselves in quality, commitment, and sheer dedication. Their testing and evaluation process relies on significant in-house wine expertise (including certified professional testers).🔐 Lockers keep it cool
Wine Spies built an especially cool feature called ‘Lockers’. With 'Lockers, you can add multiple bottles to a virtual case and when the case reaches a certain capacity, it ships for free! This is really convenient for wine purchasers so they do not need to pay shipping and it ultimately incentivizes buying multiple bottles.👫They follow the direct-to-consumer approach
This approach is a bit different than other online wine businesses. Rather than offering a large collection of wines that can be purchased anytime, Wine Spies only list a single wine per day. Sure, you can buy from a list of catalogs as well, but the Featured Product is what makes this business so special. By following this simple approach, the company has witnessed 5x revenue growth as compared to last year.
