You're right the small lot production is a great reason to join the Club.

Largely for all their small batch releases. Always exciting to see what they come out with, and always a learning experience. I can't say that about allot of wine clubs.

1) Le Vieux Pin & La Stella
2) Black Hills Estate
3) Mission Hill
4) Painted Rock
5) Fort Berens
6) Benjamin Bridge
Two of the most important thing for me in a wine club is the possibility to change what's being shipped to me and the quality of the wines obviously.

Not enough small batch unique offerings to make the membership worth it. I do buy from wineries but find it is not worth joining club, getting 5 wines I can buy elsewhere if I want them, just to get the one bottle that is unique to club. BB is my only club at this point.
