The Best Natural Wine Subscriptions

If you’re reading this article about the best natural wine subscriptions boxes, it's safe to assume you're interested in natural wine. But what actually is natural wine? Well, that’s a simple question with a slightly less-simple answer. Natural wine isn’t a style of wine but rather a concept or movement within the wine scene. If that sounds a bit vague that’s because, well, it is. There’s no hard and fast rule as to what classifies a natural wine but most winemakers that fall under the category will have farmed their grapes organically (without the use of any pesticides or herbicides) and turned those grapes into wine without the addition of any additives.

Think of it like the difference between drinking a freshly squeezed glass of orange juice and glass of Tropicana. Sure, the former can sometimes be a little pulpy, and most fresh OJ tends to be less consistent than the formulaic deliciousness of the latter, but you always can tell when drinking it that there’s something “alive” in a glass. Something a little bit magical. And, just like a fresh orange juice that tastes of the soil, the sun, and the bright blue sky can make you question why you ever bought generic-brand juice in the first place, a truly great natural wine – a serve that might share more in common with bottled lightning than fermented grapes – will change your mind about conventional wine altogether.

As you’d expect from any movement that prides itself on variety and originality, navigating the natural wine scene is no easy feat. Knowing which bottles are the brightest and best, and which taste like a hen’s arse, takes a lot of trial and error. And, in the long run, can end up costing you a fair bit of money.

One of the best (and most affordable) ways to find out more about natural wine, while simultaneously ensuring that you’re only drinking the cream of the crop, is through signing up to a natural wine subscription service. After all, what could be better than getting a crate of natural wine, hand-selected by an expert sommelier, delivered to your door every month? Well, aside from actually drinking that wine, of course.

If you’re intrigued to learn more about the world of natural wine, we’d recommend signing yourself up for one of the brilliant subscriptions below. These are the best natural wine subscription services you’re going to find.

Wanderlust Wine sounds like it should be the name for an Instagram account owned by a tanned couple with veneers who jet around the world sampling bottles of Bordeaux. Thankfully, it’s a hell of a lot cooler than that. Wanderlust Wine is a natural wine subscription service that allows you to get organic, sustainable and artisanal wines delivered to your flat/house/McMansion every two months. Memberships come in either ‘Silver’ (four bottles of wine every two months), ‘Gold’ (eight bottles of wine every two months), or ‘Platinum’ (ten bottles of wine every two months), so it’s up to you to gauge how many bottles you can get through. With each case you’ll also be given the skinny on each wine, including background information on the producer, tasting notes, and food pairing suggestions.

Sign up to this über stylish members club and you’ll be sent sommelier-curated natural wine bottle cases, an artist commissioned poster, and be given special access to a host of on and offline wine tastings, pop-up food events, art shows and parties. If you make the cut, that is. There are only 49 new spaces available per month at clubOranj because, in their own words, they want to “stay small, considered, to grow slowly, and naturally, like the vines that produce the wine you drink.” They’re all about quality over quantity at clubOranj which – let’s face it – is very, very cool and something we are very, very into. February's collaboration case includes wines selected by Akoko sommelier Henna Zinzuwadia, a passionate poster (see above) from artist Adelina Sasnauskaitė, and tunes for all the lovers out there chosen by NTS radio host Zakia Sewell.

Choosing what wine you want to drink is hard, man. It’s easy to get distracted by snazzy labels and punny names without gaining any concrete understanding about what it is you’re actually buying.

You can either get three bottles of bangers – hand-selected by the Cuvée team – for £55 (including shipping) or you can do what any self-respecting wino will do and opt for the six-bottle delivery for £110 (including shipping). Happy sipping.

Ambient.wine is a fairly new wine subscription club that features a load of independent and hard-to-find cuvées – many of which were previously exclusive to restaurants – now available for home delivery. This is one for the real heads out there as, until fairly recently, the team at Ambient had been bent on supplying over 100 of the UK’s leading restaurants with the best natural wines from around the world. Now, they’re keen to ply you, the MOB, with those same grailed bottles of previously restaurant-bound wines. All at a price typically one-third of what you’d expect from a restaurant wine list. Choose from a selection of cases including red, white, and orange wine for £120 per month. That might sound steep but it’s an investment worth making.

Use the code 'AMBIENTMOB' to get £10 off your first box.

A lot of things in life are best left to the experts. Mainly things like dentistry and singing onstage in front of thousands of people but I’m a firm believer that choosing the right wine also falls under that category. That’s where Savage Vines comes in.

All the wines come directly from small, independent winemakers that focus on organic and biodynamic wine made with minimal intervention that have as little impact on the environment as possible. As for the price? Well, a three-bottle monthly delivery (which includes a handy wine map, tasting notes, and even a podcast to chat you through the grapes) will cost you £42. If that’s the answer to life, the universe, and everything then we don’t know what is.
