Wine.com Description:
Wine.com provides the customer with the opportunity to purchase wines they might never be able to find otherwise. The wide selection and relatively easy purchasing process make this a fine site to fill all your wine and wine accessory needs. There are over 5,000 different wines awaiting your perusal, with more and different varieties appearing all the time. One thing to bear in mind is that this is the new Wine.com. They have been operating under the auspices of eVineyard for almost a year, with some considerable success. They have maintained a user-friendly site that is tailored to the needs of their target audience. Setting up an account is simple, and making purchases is just as easy. While the site is basic, it does allow fairly free mobility, and their search program is very detailed. If they have what you want in stock, you will be able to find it, and quickly. Each individual wine is described, with an invitation to customers to submit reviews to the site. Some of the interesting additional features include a number of wine clubs, general wine information, and employee picks, along with a monthly customer pick. These reviews are archived and are perfect for a buyer who might not have extensive wine experience. Additionally, the inexperienced will find the glossary link helpful, as the wine world does have extensive and specific terminology. A site like this does provide a wonderful service; however, let the buyer beware. Following the tradition of the wine business, any bottle of wine older than 10 years is purchased at the customer's own risk. The long and the short of it is this: finding and buying the perfect bottle of wine can be a difficult task. Wine.com takes what could be a chore and makes it a breeze.
