The wine club is for the members of the York Medical Society. We function as a cooperative and each member purchases a £50 share on joining the club. To join the wine club, please send an email to make your application and arrange to either pay by BACS or send a cheque for your share for £50 – made payable to the Y.M.S.W.C. You will then receive full access to all the wines on club list, including the latest offers of featured wines and regular invitations to events . This share acts as the buying capital for the wines, and a small mark-up on each bottle pays for any administrative costs. Any surplus is invested into the stock and we now have a full cellar of stock as a result of this. Should you decide to move from the area, your share is fully reimbursable.
The YMS building dates from 1590
If you are not a member of the York Medical Society, and would like to join as a first step to joining the wine club, please contact the York Medical Society manager, Susan Blenkiron. We would welcome anyone who wants to become more actively involved and join the selection committee. We aim to meet up about six times a year and taste our way through samples to make the choices for the new offers. This is always fun, as well as being instructive and providing a great opportunity to meet fellow enthusiasts.
