The Hamptons Wine Club is the only online club focusing exclusively on Long Island wines. Members receive a variety of wines – red, white and rose -- delivered to their homes or offices each month. Additionally, anyone can send a 3, 6 or 12 month membership as a gift to friends or loved ones, letting them enjoy one of the best kept wine secrets – Long Island wines.

“We are very excited to become part of Long Island’s wine community” Bob Mate, a founding partner of B and D Wine, said in a release. “This region is poised to become well-known across the country for producing some of the best wines in the U.S. The quality of the wine along with the favorable price point makes Long Island wine a natural winner. We look forward to introducing Long Island wine to people across the United States.”
