This partnership between Travel + Leisure, the world’s most influential travel brand, and Vintage Wine Estates, which owns unique wine estates in Napa, Sonoma, California’s Central Coast, Oregon and Washington, allows wine lovers a curated quarterly taste of some of the most renowned wineries in America with individual bottles for purchase for both members and non-members. VWE is also overseeing the management, fulfillment and customer support services for Travel + Leisure Wine.
“The Travel + Leisure brand is synonymous with extraordinary experiences, and our latest offering extends that brand promise to a whole new platform. Great wine elevates an ordinary dinner at home or away and transforms it into a special event,” said Noah Brodsky, president of Travel + Leisure Group. “As we expand the Travel + Leisure brand into new products, services and experiences, the collaboration with Vintage Wine Estates was a natural next step to grow our business.”
Vintage Wine Estates — one of the fastest growing wine producers in the U.S., with a direct-to-customer sales and delivery platform, is selecting wines from its extensive portfolio of winery estates and luxury brands to create a curated collection of offerings for Travel + Leisure Wine customers which showcase the rich flavors of some America’s most coveted wine-growing regions.
Travel + Leisure Wine focuses on offering an authentic sense of place for every curated wine selection—with learning materials provided directly from the winemakers that highlight the unique characteristics of where each wine is produced and how that develops the wine’s flavor and personality. In addition, Travel + Leisure Wine members have the ability to visit any of VWE’s 12 featured estate wineries with exclusive invitations to wine maker special events, curated tours and complimentary wine tastings.
“What sets us apart from some other wine clubs out there is that we have an incredible portfolio of real vineyards, real winemakers and real people who are excited to share what they do with their guests,” explained Jessica Kogan, chief digital and marketing officer for Vintage Wine Estates. “While many wine clubs highlight wines from one winemaker, Travel + Leisure Wine members can enjoy wines from a portfolio of more than 25 unique vineyards and VIP benefits at 12 distinct wine estates.”
Travel + Leisure Wine customers can enjoy complimentary tastings at 12 renowned wine estates including Girard Winery, Swanson Vineyards, Laetitia Vineyard & Winery, among others. Travel + Leisure Wine member shipments and its online shop will frequently feature exclusive limited quantity wines typically only available directly in tasting rooms.
VWE has entered into a licensing agreement with Travel + Leisure Group, a new business line from Travel + Leisure Co. (NYSE: TNL), the world’s leading membership and leisure travel company. Brand licensing is an integral part of Travel + Leisure Group’s larger mission to take Travel + Leisure, the world’s most influential travel brand, beyond inspirational content and bring it to life through a curated suite of consumer products and services.
