The Vault · By invitation only
Your own Sommelier. First refusal on the rarest wines.
Welcome in. A Sommelier who learns your taste, ordering as easy as sending a message, and the bottles most people never get the chance to buy.
What Vault access means
Personal
Your own Sommelier, on one private line. Your tastes, budget and occasions on file, so suggestions arrive before you ask.
Effortless
No searching, no comparing. Send a message, tap Reserve, pay by link. Reorders and gifts handled in the same thread.
Exclusive
First refusal on rare and limited allocations, before they ever reach the main website. By invitation only.

A glimpse of this month's allocations.
Chosen by Wine Republic for Vault members, and offered to you personally.
How it works
A message. A tap. Done.
Everything happens in your phone's own Messages app. Nothing to download, no group chat.
1
A release arrives. A text from The Vault with the wine, the story, how many there are and when first refusal closes.
2
Tap Reserve. Or reply RESERVE. We hold it for you straight away.
3
Pay by link. Your Sommelier sends a secure payment link. Delivered to your door.
Or simply ask. For example:
"Six for a dinner party on Saturday, around £30 a bottle, red-heavy."

Questions.
How do I become a member?
The Vault is by personal invitation only, from someone who knows us. Not been invited yet? Join the waitlist and we will offer places in order as The Vault grows.
Does membership cost anything?
No. Membership is free and there is no minimum spend. You only pay for the wine you choose.
How often will you message me?
Only when there is something worth knowing. Usually a few times a month, never daily.
Who is my Sommelier?
Wine Republic's team, led by Adam. Your messages and preferences stay with us, one-to-one.
What if I miss a release?
Tell your Sommelier what you are looking for and we will keep an eye out. Many allocations come round once a year.
Delivery?
Free UK delivery on orders over £100.
Can I introduce a friend?
Yes. Tell your Sommelier who you have in mind and we will take it from there. Every introduction is approved personally.
How do I leave?
Reply STOP to any Vault message. You can rejoin later by asking whoever introduced you.
Not a member yet?
