- Wine Of The Month Clubs Are Perfect Solution
Many people adore wine including myself. I try to taste new types of wine as much as possible. Each month I try to take a sip of at least one bottle of new type of wine. I am one of those persons that don't like to go shopping very much. Going out...

Lenn's New York Wine Club
Originally uploaded by Lenn Thompson.
New York's wine regions have received good press, but it can be difficult to find the wines outside that state.
