Looking to dip your toe in the sommelier world, or just an eager-to-learn wino? Luckily, VineBox is an accessible way for everyone to enjoy a fine wine and discover what they like.

Begin your tour through wine country (in your own home) with a quiz on VineBox’s website. The survey helps customers determine what flavors, acidity level and various wine preferences they may have.

VineBox then curates a tailor-made box of three–six new wines according to your tastes in monthly shipments. Each sample-sized drink wine equals one glass — perfect for a friendly gathering or just an interesting way for you to determine what you like and the food it pairs with.

The sample size encourages users to taste around and determine their palate for themselves without waste. If you find something you love, order the full-sized bottle and if you don’t find your new favorite in the first box, let VineBox know and your next box will be even more to your taste.

Beginning at $25 a box, discover what kind of wine-drinker you are from classic favorites, adventurous or looking for something new and exciting. Seasonal boxes include the Shades of Summer package, complete with one crisp white wine, two light reds and six (of course) rosés, $76.
