Minneapolis Wine Club
MINNESOTA'S NUMBER ONE PUBLIC WINE CLUB!!!!!
In 2004 John Glas launched the Minneapolis Wine Club and it has evolved into the only "Grand Cru" Wine Club in Minnesota for the general public. While there are some better private wine clubs in the Twin Cities the Minneapolis Wine Club is the only public option where Bordeaux, Burgundy and Riesling will be represented properly. Each month we have a different themed event and members learn in a fun, interactive atmosphere.
Due to the popularity of the club you must pre pay $50 to be added to the club which gets credited to your first event.
Each event features between six and eight wines and the typically average priced bottle is around $45. Some of the amazing bottles poured have been: 1998 Fox Creek Reserve Shiraz,
2000 Chateau Leoville Poyferre St. Julien, 2006 Zind Humbrecht Turckheim Herrenweg Alsace Riesling,
2005 Chateau Beaucastel Chateauneuf du Pape,
2005 Concha Y Toro Don Melchor Maipo, 2006 Mollydooker Velvet Glove,
1998 M. Chapoutier La Mordorée Côte-Rôtie, 1997 Penfolds Grange and more...

The Private Minneapolis Wine Club
This is the gold standard for wine connoisseurs in Minneapolis & St. Paul. Each event will have a specific theme and purpose in order to try the best examples of the worldwide regions. We are open to New & Old World wines where the rest of the higher end clubs are mostly Old World.
Why this is the best private club in Minnesota:
1. No corked or damaged bottles
*Expect 2 or 3 at the rest of the groups
as our members have to check for
perfection before attending.
2. A Great Venue
We conduct almost all the tastings at a private
dining room at the Edina Country Club
3. Expectations
If we are doing a Bordeaux tasting we set the
cost of the bottle up front. No off vintages or
cheap stuff aloud.
4. Learning
Almost all tastings are done blind. No other
club does this format.
Serious Inquires only!
