The California Wine Club is a wine club co-founded in 1990 by Bruce and Pam Boring[1] in Ventura, California and is considered one of the largest mail-order wine businesses in the United States.[2] The club offers hand-selected wines on a monthly basis from boutique and small, family-owned wineries in California, Oregon and Washington State, and other countries such as France, Italy, and Austria.[3] While most of the wine is from California, the majority of the wine is shipped to club members out of state.[4]

Cork recycling program[]

The California Wine Club partnered with ReCork, a natural wine cork recycling program, in July 2011 to conduct a nationwide cork drive.[5]

Uncorked, The California Wine Club newsletter[]

Shipments from The California Wine Club include their newsletter, Uncorked. Uncorked is a full magazine featuring glossy pictures and articles. It also includes tasting notes for featured wines, interviews, recipes, and more.[6]
