My Bright Cellars Addiction


Full disclosure: I am not a wine connoisseur. BUT. I do enjoy wine. Red wine to be exact. And I'm very picky about the red wine I drink. I never really knew what types of wines to look for when shopping and I rarely opted for new wines for fear I wouldn't like my choice.

I don't remember exactly how I got into Bright Cellars, but I love it.  In fact, I've started gifting Bright Cellars to family and friends and it's been a huge hit.

Here's how it works. It's a monthly wine club. Two MIT grads came up with an algorithm to match your taste with wine. Crazy right? You take a quick quiz, made up of about five questions - what kind of chocolate you like, how you like your tea - things you wouldn't think of when talking about wine. When you are finished, they match four wines for you try.  Once you drink the wines, you go online and rate them. Based on your feedback, you get four different wines. Rate them again. Wash, rinse, repeat. You get the idea. If you find one you really like, you can get deals on cases.

The great thing is, you're exposed to wines you've never heard of or probably have ever seen in the store. The bad news is, you probably can't find them in a store. But, you will get emails when your favorites are on sale. It's really quite a genius concept.

I actually changed my subscription to quarterly because I had purchased a couple cases and was overloaded on wine! So you don't have to do it every month - you can make it work

Let me know what you end up with in your first box. I'm always curious to see how people get matched.
