Travel and lifestyle brand partners with Vintage Wine Estates to deliver highly  curated, destination-driven wine clubs and online bottle shop  

Club membership includes access to curated tours and complimentary wine  tastings at 12 wine estates in Napa Valley, Oregon and Washington 

ORLANDO, Fla. (March 15, 2022) – Travel + Leisure Group announced today the launch of  travelandleisurewine.com featuring multiple-estates in one wine club membership as well as an online bottle shop through a partnership with Vintage Wine Estates, Inc. (Nasdaq: VWE and  VWEWW) (“VWE”). The website offers access to highly-curated experiences that come with a  wine club membership including VIP tastings at the wineries or virtually, annual harvest  celebration events and more from coveted wineries throughout California, Oregon and  Washington. 

This partnership between Travel + Leisure, the world’s most influential travel brand, and Vintage  Wine Estates, which owns unique wine estates in Napa, Sonoma, California’s Central Coast,  Oregon and Washington, allows wine lovers a curated quarterly taste of some of the most  renowned wineries in America with individual bottles for purchase for both members and non members. VWE is also overseeing the management, fulfillment and customer support services  for Travel + Leisure Wine. 

“The Travel + Leisure brand is synonymous with extraordinary experiences, and our latest  offering extends that brand promise to a whole new platform. Great wine elevates an ordinary dinner at home or away and transforms it into a special event,” said Noah Brodsky, president of  Travel + Leisure Group. “As we expand the Travel + Leisure brand into new products, services and experiences, the collaboration with Vintage Wine Estates was a natural next step to grow  our business.” 

Vintage Wine Estates — one of the fastest growing wine producers in the U.S., with a direct-to customer sales and delivery platform, is selecting wines from its extensive portfolio of winery  estates and luxury brands to create a curated collection of offerings for Travel + Leisure Wine  customers which showcase the rich flavors of some America’s most coveted wine-growing  regions.  

Travel + Leisure Wine focuses on offering an authentic sense of place for every curated wine  selection—with learning materials provided directly from the winemakers that highlight the  unique characteristics of where each wine is produced and how that develops the wine’s flavor  and personality. In addition, Travel + Leisure Wine members have the ability to visit any of  VWE’s 12 featured estate wineries with exclusive invitations to wine maker special events,  curated tours and complimentary wine tastings. 

“What sets us apart from some other wine clubs out there is that we have an incredible portfolio  of real vineyards, real winemakers and real people who are excited to share what they do with  their guests,” explained Jessica Kogan, chief digital and marketing officer for Vintage Wine  Estates. “While many wine clubs highlight wines from one winemaker, Travel + Leisure Wine members can enjoy wines from a portfolio of more than 25 unique vineyards and VIP benefits at  12 distinct wine estates.” 

Travel + Leisure Wine customers can enjoy complimentary tastings at 12 renowned wine  estates including Girard Winery, Swanson Vineyards, Laetitia Vineyard & Winery, among  others. Travel + Leisure Wine member shipments and its online shop will frequently feature  exclusive limited quantity wines typically only available directly in tasting rooms.  

VWE has entered into a licensing agreement with Travel + Leisure Group, a new business line  from Travel + Leisure Co. (NYSE: TNL), the world’s leading membership and leisure travel  company. Brand licensing is an integral part of Travel + Leisure Group’s larger mission to take Travel + Leisure, the world’s most influential travel brand, beyond inspirational content and bring  it to life through a curated suite of consumer products and services.
