Wine Enthusiasts, Dive Into Subscription 2.0
At WineFortune, our mission has remained constant: to make wine investments as accessible as crowdfunding made real estate or loans. No need to be a wine expert or own a private cellar. We've made history with a licensed fine wine investment fund, starting at just 1 euro. Now, we've addressed a significant concern for wine lovers investing in their future. You no longer need to pre-select the wines for enjoyment in 10 or 20 years or take risks with specific bottles in your cellar. We've introduced three wine lists where you can become a shareholder and later decide whether to opt for ready-to-drink wines or sell the shares on the secondary market.
What exactly is a wine subscription list?
Fine wine subscription services typically provide a convenient means to construct a personal fine wine portfolio, usually offering a portfolio manager, storage service, and requiring substantial initial investments. The major drawback often lies in the challenge of predicting your tastes 10 to 20 years in advance. What if your preferences change over time? WineFortune's subscription list introduces a wine subscription 2.0—an enhanced fine wine experience. As a member, you can consistently invest in wines you genuinely want to enjoy in the future, choosing from a selection of ready-to-drink fine wines available for order and enjoyment. Simply pick one or more of our three wine lists that best suit your taste and budget, initiating share acquisition through recurring monthly payments. Later, you can decide to savor some of the wines from the list or sell your shares on the secondary market.
How it works?
As a fine wine enthusiast or investor, you can choose from three subscription options: Smart Pick, Premium Selection, or Créme de la Crème. Each month, additional funds from our subscription clients are allocated to all three wine lists. WineFortune then selects wines for each list based on critics' points, the classification level in the wine world, and the historical performance of previous vintages. All wines in the lists have a minimum rating of 91 points, ensuring a delightful experience for wine enthusiasts and a lower-risk option for financial investors. The subscription amount depends on the average cost per bottle in the list category, allowing you to start investing from 50, 150, or 500 euros, with the flexibility to increase the amounts.
Wine list: Smart Pick
The Smart Pick wines are sourced from major fine wine regions in Europe and globally, including both traditional wine countries and emerging stars. The key criteria for wines on this list are ratings of 91-94 points from at least three top critics or wine journals. This list is dedicated to offering the best price-quality ratio and the highest potential value increase. You can join the Smart Pick list with a monthly investment starting from 50 euros.
Wine list: Premium Selection
The Premium Selection list features bottles from esteemed wine-producing countries like France, Italy, Spain, Germany, USA, Chile, Argentina, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand. To make it onto this list, wines must achieve ratings of 95-98 points from at least three top wine critics or journals. With a focus on the finest wines of the vintage priced at 150+ euros per bottle, Premium Selection represents a harmonious balance of risk and value. You can become a member of the Premium Selection list with a monthly investment starting from 150 euros.
Wine list: Créme de la Crème
The Créme de la Crème list features wines from the world's absolute top regions, including Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Rhone, Tuscany, Piemonte, USA, Chile, Argentina, Australia, and New Zealand. To make it onto this list, wines must receive a minimum of 99-100 points from at least three world-renowned wine critics or journals. Representing the pinnacle of quality from their respective vintages, these wines include only iconic labels. For financial investors seeking the lowest-risk option, joining the Créme de la Crème list is possible with a monthly investment starting from 500 euros.

What do subscribers think?
Rain (55): "It’s a proud moment to uncork a bottle in the future when its value is 2-3 times higher than the amount I paid 10 or 20 years ago. For instance, if today I invest 150 euros in the wine list, after 20 years, when I turn 50, I could potentially open a bottle with a market value of about 500-600 euros or more.”
Sander (28): “I started with the wine list subscription for my child, thinking of it as a perfect combination of a pension fund and an exclusive asset. When my child reaches the age of about 30 or so, I'll pass this account to her. Of course, she can then choose to open bottles on special occasions or sell shares on the market, but at least I can be sure that he owns an asset with real value in the market."
Marit (43): “I want to ensure that in the future when I need a special bottle to celebrate an anniversary, I have a place to access it without having to spend a lot of money to acquire an older vintage from the market. By making the right decision years before, I can secure it at a significantly lower price than the current market rate.”
