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 £12,300 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 Jane Robinson, the manager, on ymsenquiries@yahoo.co.uk .
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.
