About The Wine Society
The Wine Society was established in 1946, when Dr Gilbert Phillips and a group of wine loving friends shared a collective vision and passion to purchase and distribute Australian table wine. Over 60 years on, and now with over 55,000 Members Australia-wide, this vision continues.
Our Philosophy
- To make available a broad quality selection of wines and other beverages to members at the best possible prices
- To advance wine appreciation and knowledge
- To promote and support excellence in the wine industry
- To be the recognised independent authority on wine matters in Australia
- To further develop a viable business enterprise that supports these objectives in the interests of members.
How do we achieve our philosophy?
To achieve our philosophy, our Members receive regular communication from The Wine Society and are invited to participate in numerous Society initiatives.
Order from the comfort of your own home - Regular Member Magazine
Our Members not only receive a regular Wine Society Mailing full of some of the best wine offers in the country, but they will be told about our popular Events and Education program and be kept up to date with interesting facts in the quarterly Society News newsletter.
The Ultimate Convenience - Regular Tasting Dozens
Members have the opportunity to join over 20,000 other Wine Society Members who currently take advantage of our Regular Tasting Dozen programs. These programs are designed to deliver a great selection of wines to you without you having to lift a finger - the ultimate convenience!
