A wine membership that learns your palate
$99.00 incl. GST / month
After each delivery, you give feedback on the wines — what worked, what didn’t. We refine what we send next, so your selections evolve with you, month by month. No lock-ins: pause or cancel any time. Three bottles each month, curated by Young Gun of Wine.

Why YGOW
For two decades, Young Gun of Wine has been discovering the people, vineyards and bottles shaping Australian wine now. We taste thousands of wines each year through our editorials, awards, events and Deep Dive blind tastings — work that has made YGOW a go-to source for sommeliers, buyers and engaged wine drinkers looking for insight and discovery. CURATED brings that same trusted palate — and that same spirit of discovery — into a membership designed around you.
"A membership shaped by your palate - not a generic monthly wine subscription."
The Process

Pick the bottle mix that suits how you like to drink: reds, whites, or a mix.
Step 2
After each delivery, tell us what you loved, what missed the mark, and why.
Step 3
Rate what you receive and we’ll use that to dial in your next selection.

Frequently Asked Questions
Young Gun of Wine CURATED is a monthly wine membership that learns your palate.
Each month, we send you three bottles selected by the Young Gun of Wine team. After each delivery, you tell us what worked, what didn’t, and what you’d like more or less of next time. We use that feedback to refine your future selections.
By becoming a member, you’re also supporting Young Gun of Wine’s broader work championing emerging winemakers, sustainable vineyard practices and a more creative, inclusive wine culture.
Each month, you’ll receive three delicious bottles of wine chosen by the Young Gun of Wine team, matched to your selected colour mix — reds, whites or a combination of both — and delivered to your door.
You’ll also receive tasting notes and background context for each wine, helping you understand what you’re drinking, who made it, where it comes from and why we selected it.
After each delivery, you’ll be able to give feedback on the wines you received, so we can keep refining future selections to better suit your palate.
CURATED is designed to offer exceptional value. Delivery is included, and by drawing on our community of members, our producer network and our close relationships with growers and makers, we’re able to source wines that over-deliver as a monthly package.
CURATED is $99 per month for three bottles.
That includes three wines selected for your preferences, detailed tasting notes, access to your My Cellar page, the ability to give feedback so we can refine future selections, and delivery to your door.
Because we buy for a growing community of CURATED members — and because of our close relationships with growers and makers — we’re able to create a package that offers exceptional value for $99.
You’ll receive wines chosen from the Young Gun of Wine world — the producers, regions and styles we’re excited about right now.
Expect interesting, quality-driven Australian wine, often from small and independent producers. Some will be familiar styles done well. Others may introduce you to something new.
Yes. When you join, you’ll choose the mix that suits you best:
From there, we’ll tailor the selections based on your feedback.
CURATED is not a choose-your-own-bottle service. It’s a discovery-led wine membership.
Your wines are selected by the Young Gun of Wine team, based on your chosen colour mix and the feedback you give us over time. The selections are a surprise, but not random — they’re chosen to help you discover wines we think are worth your attention, while gradually learning more about your palate.
When your pack ships, each wine will appear in your My Cellar page with tasting notes, background context and producer information.
After each delivery, you’ll be able to rate each wine in your My Cellar page and tell us what you thought.
You don’t need to use technical wine language. Just tell us what worked, what didn’t, and what you’d like more or less of next time — whether that’s lighter, richer, fresher, funkier, more classic or more adventurous.
But feedback is completely optional. This isn’t homework. Every wine we send is one we’re excited to share, so even if you never rate a bottle, you can rest easy knowing your pack has been chosen with care.
When you do give feedback, we use it to build a clearer picture of your palate and refine future selections over time.
Not at all.
CURATED is designed for people who want to drink better wine without having to do all the research. You can be as detailed or as casual with your feedback as you like.
The wines are selected by the Young Gun of Wine team, drawing on nearly two decades of tasting, judging, writing about and discovering Australian wine.
Each year, we taste thousands of wines through our awards, Deep Dive tastings, editorial work and producer network — seeking out the bottles that feel delicious, distinctive and worth your attention.
Our close relationships with growers and makers also help us source wines that offer genuine value for CURATED members.
Not necessarily.
Some wines will appear across multiple member boxes, but your selections are guided by your chosen mix and the feedback you give us. As the membership grows, the aim is for your box to become more closely aligned with your taste over time.
Billing occurs on the 7th of each month.
Your monthly payment covers your next CURATED delivery of three wines.
Yes. There are no lock-ins.
You can pause, edit or cancel your monthly order at any stage up until the 6th of each month. After that, billing takes place on the 7th and we begin preparing that month’s wine allocations.
After the 6th, your monthly order is locked in for that month’s delivery.
Billing occurs on the 7th, then we prepare your wine selection and dispatch it approximately two weeks later. You can still make changes to your membership for future months.
Your wines will usually be on their way approximately two weeks after billing.
Once your order has been dispatched, you’ll receive a notification with tracking details so you can follow your delivery.
Tell us.
The point of CURATED is not that every bottle will be an obvious favourite from day one. The point is that your feedback helps us learn what you enjoy, so we can make better selections for you over time.
You can report an issue directly from your My Cellar page.
Each wine in your delivery will appear in your cellar, where you’ll be able to select Report Issue and tell us what happened — whether the bottle was damaged in transit, there was a delivery issue, or something else wasn’t right.
We’ll review the issue and help resolve it from there.
Not in the old-school sense.
CURATED is more like a feedback-led wine membership. We’re not sending the same fixed dozen to everyone. We’re using your responses to build a better picture of your palate, month by month.
Wine deliveries may require age verification and cannot be accepted by anyone under 18.
Depending on the courier and delivery instructions available, your box may need to be signed for or collected if delivery is missed.
At this stage, CURATED is available for delivery within Australia only.
For two decades, Young Gun of Wine has been discovering, championing and celebrating Australian wine.
Each year, we taste thousands of wines through our awards, Deep Dive tastings, editorial work and producer network — seeking out the producers, regions and ideas shaping the future of wine in Australia.
CURATED brings that discovery directly to your door. By drawing on our tasting work, our producer relationships and our community of members, we’re able to source wines that offer genuine value — bottles that feel delicious, distinctive and worth your attention.
And by becoming a member, you’re not just receiving great wine. You’re participating in a broader effort to champion emerging winemakers, advance sustainability in vineyards, celebrate creativity in wine culture and help more people discover the joy of Australian wine.
