The Masters Wine Panel at WineStyles

Meet our Masters Wine Panel^TM

When you join our Wine Club, you'll receive two great bottles each month that are hand-selected by WineStyles and then analyzed and evaluated by our Masters Wine Panel™. Comprised of Independent Master Sommeliers and Masters of Wine, our unique Masters Wine Panel provides expert guidance in selecting and discovering great wines from boutique wineries around the world. This collaborative process results in a group of wines that are offered at great prices at WineStyles. And our Masters Wine Panel determines a rating for each wine selected: a Bronze Star (a solid, value wine), a Silver Star (a very good value wine) or a Gold Star (an excellent value wine). Our wine masters will guide you through the selection process with the type of honest and thoughtful advice that you’d expect from a good friend and the expertise and knowledge you’ve come to count on from a WineStyles wine master. We invite you to join our Wine Club and learn more about our panel members below.
