TCM has partnered with Direct Wines, specialists in direct-to-consumer wine partnerships, as well as Wines That Rock, the pop culture wine company behind classic Rock ‘n’ Roll-influenced wines and more, to create an exclusive club for film buffs and wine enthusiasts alike.
As part of the offer, new members will receive 15 special bottles including the first-ever release of Café Zoetrope, a custom-crafted red from the Francis Ford Coppola Winery.
Members will also receive True Grit Limited Edition Zinfandel along with The Essentials Cabernet Sauvignon – the first in a series of single-varietal wines, specifically curated for TCM Wine Club members.
“We are always looking for new and exciting brand extension opportunities and are thrilled to partner with Direct Wines and Wines that Rock to bring our fans additional classic film lifestyle experiences,” said Jennifer Dorian, General Manager at TCM. “TCM at its core is a curator of movies, and with the TCM Wine Club we can be an authentic source for wine and movie pairings.”
“The TCM Wine Club puts a fresh and fun spin on wine clubs – creating a totally unique experience of exploration. TCM has a great tradition of curating the best cinema for us all to enjoy. Now the TCM Wine Club will extend that tradition by bringing together a formidable team of wine experts to guide its members through the world of wine, but always through the lens of film. Pairing expertly sourced wines together with must-see cinema will highlight the joy of discovery for both movie and wine lovers alike,” added Howard Jackowitz, Co-Founder of Wines That Rock, LLC.
