Vine Tales Wine Club may be the new best thing since sliced bread. Sensational wines from different regions of the world are selected for you and then delivered directly to your front doorstep every two months along with informative and interesting touring and tasting notes, plus tidbits on the wineries, wines and regions themselves. Just in time for Mother's Day, during the month of May the club focuses on the Columbia Valley wines. Vine Tales stresses three factors in selecting which wines make the cut and what gets left behind: how well the wine represents the region, that it is from a reputable cellar actively striving to make advances in turning out a superior product, and that the wines represent a superb value. We all know that just because something is expensive doesn't mean it's good. Vine Tales takes out the guesswork and allows one to be daring and try new varietals. Other locales throughout the year include New Zealand wines, British Columbia vino and palate pleasers from Italy. A case of 12 bottles runs just under $300; half-cases of six are also available. Crunch those numbers and you'll see $25 for primo vino is a rarely seen good deal. Sign up online at Vine Tales or call (888) 883-VINE. - Jennifer Johnson
