Each month, wines are hand-selected by Ben, our in-house Certified Specialist. He finds small producers making sustainable wines that will delight the palate.
Explore new regions and growers through write-ups and descriptions that are included with each wine. Get suggestions for food pairings to complete the experience.
Get a 20% discount on all in-store wines on the day you pick up your subscription and 10% off all wines every other day of the month.
Ben’s earliest memories of wine are his father letting him sip from his glass. When Ben moved to Montana in 2013, his passion for wine really took off. He spent the next few years working in fine dining as a sommelier and restaurant consultant before joining the Hungry Moose where he was handed the reins of the wine program.
In his years at the Hungry Moose, Ben has discovered small producers who farm sustainably and create wines thoughtfully. He enjoys sourcing from regions that aren't well represented elsewhere in Montana, offering something unique to customers browsing our shelves.
The CSW certification is widely recognized and regarded by the international wine industry. To receive certification, candidates must pass an exam, proving their knowledge and mastery of key elements within the worlds of viticulture and wine production.
"We look forward to picking up our Wine Club selections each month...(they) always drink fabulously, and we've discovered many new wines in the process...But our best discovery has been Ben Mackall, who is a walking encyclopedia of wine and can communicate his knowledge very effectively."
Max, Happy Wine Club Member
The Wine Club is a way to connect our more curious customers with rare, delicious, off-the-beaten-path wines. The club is a monthly two-bottle subscription service with attached in-store discounts and other perks. All wines come with a story, tasting notes, maps and pairing suggestions.
Wine Club pickup is at our Town Center store on the first Thursday of the month.
We hand-curate every selection for the club. You do get to choose between two reds, a red and a white or even two whites. You can also choose between two pricing tiers: $39.95 or $69.95. You also have the option to customize your order to a split plan: one bottle from one tier and one from another. We also offer half-case plans (3 and 3). Please inquire if you are interested in a customized plan.
Members enjoy 10% off all wine purchased in store, at any time, in any quantity. That discount is extended to 20% on the day you pick up your monthly wine, provided it is before the second Thursday of the month. Like a wine we ran? With some exceptions, re-orders of all club wines enjoy a 20% discount off of retail. We are working on coordinating exclusive club member tastings here in town, so stay tuned!
Members can look forward to being introduced to wines, grapes, regions and producers that they may never have heard of! We focus on interesting, small-production wines. Every wine is tasted and vetted beforehand.
Of course! The wines are ready for pickup on the first Thursday of the month, but you don't need to swing by immediately (though we don't know why you aren't running down here to grab your monthly wines at 9 a.m. on Thursday!). We will even hold and continue to bring in wine for you for three months unless told otherwise.
Payment is due at pickup. We also have the option to run your card automatically every month.
We're sorry to see you go! Pausing or canceling your membership is as easy as calling the store, emailing wine@hungrymoose.com or swinging by to let us know. The club is considered opt-out, meaning that if you have not told us that you will only be signing up for specific months or for a short term, we will continue to bring in your monthly wines for three months; we ask that if you don't want this service to please let us know.
Absolutely not! Custom plans of all shapes and sizes are available. Many of our members are seasonal residents and visitors who are on custom plans. While our default is assuming a monthly pickup, you can choose to join for one month, summers only or year-round, or try for a month to see if it is for you.
