Adventures in Wine - Vineyard Experience Gifts
Fans of high quality boutique wines and the stories behind them can enjoy a year of bright new discoveries within their membership of one of the UK's most popular wine clubs. offers inspirational wine gifts, wine travel and wine & gourmet experiences.
3D was established over 20 years ago for wine lovers who also wanted to discover the joy of visiting beautiful vineyards and meeting friendly winemakers, sharing their art & craft and warm hospitality. 3D is still the place to start your wine adventures and now helps members enjoy wines and visits to its partnered vineyard estates in France , as well as to Italy and New Zealand . Membership benefits start from £89; or simply add a 3D Experience Gift Case comprising three bottles of high quality 3D partner wines and a Riedel glass, to transform it into a memorable gift (from £119 to £175 including membership).
The 3D Wines experience is so much more than a gift box of wine - it is the year-round enjoyment of being a member that makes this club so much fun, and will be a pleasure for any wine lover. Enjoy the wines, enjoy the experience of visiting the vineyards and the local food, and enjoy meeting dedicated and skilful winemakers in the intimate and beautiful settings of small, family-run vineyards. You are warmly welcomed and, in an engaging and fun way, can learn how the wines are made, using traditional as well as new organic and biodynamic techniques, and why they taste the way they do.
The choice is yours from some 95 carefully selected wines. Almost half of these are made exclusively for 3D members and are not available elsewhere. Over a third of these are organic or biodynamic. 3D has 30 partner vineyards and domaines in 11 regions to visit: Bordeaux , Burgundy North, Burgundy South, Beaujolais, Rhône Valley, Loire Valley Central, Loire Valley West, Alsace, Champagne, Tuscany and New Zealand .
Andrew Bennett , Co-Owner of 3D Wines, adds, "
With the choice of 11 different regions, each case contains all you need to start your vinous journey: three expertly selected bottles of wine from the region, a Riedel swirl tasting glass, a personal tasting notebook and details about the area, the vineyards and wines. Once you decide which region to explore, perhaps based on your favourite style of wine or an interest in the area, the 3D team of wine & travel experts will be there to guide and advise you. http://www.3dwinesexperience.com
As soon as the latest vintages are available from your vineyards, 3D will write to you with the tasting notes. All the wines are available at members' prices (less than the cellar door price). There is no obligation to buy, but if you choose to, there are usually three options to obtain your wines: collect them directly from your vineyard, collect them at 3D's wine store in Calais, or have them delivered to your door. Throughout the year there is also the opportunity to try other wines from 3D's seasonal wine lists, limited edition wine offers and via the Partners' exclusive online shop.
If you choose to visit your vineyards, the 3D team will help organise your visits and book recommended hotels and gîtes. In some locations, there are even options to stay at the vineyard, or join a tailor-made 3D event in the region.

Formed in 1992 (and first established as a quirky membership club to 'rent a row of vines'), it started as a hobby, and many of its first partner vineyards were those discovered during numerous visits to France over the years by the owners. Personal friendships with these winemakers, and the fun gained visiting their vineyards, enabled the company which is now 3D Wines to create its pioneering business. Today, with 20 years' experience, it has built up its selection of vineyards and wines with great care to offer members memorable experiences and good value, award-winning wines. With an excellent reputation as a French wine specialist, it concentrates on small, family producers in some of the best appellations of France . The introduction of two new vineyards in New Zealand several years ago proved very successful, and now 3D Wines welcomes three new partner vineyards from Tuscany .
3D currently stocks 95 different wines, many of which are exclusive to 3D members in the UK.
