Wine Authentication Services

Individual
Free, Limited Access Subscription - If you wish, you can select the Free, Limited Access Subscription option and we may, from time to time, email information to you about wine, authenticity, pertinent news and any other wine matters. A Free, Limited Access Subscription gives limited access to the site. For example, you do NOT have the ability to leave messages in the Discussion Forums.

$20/year Subscription - By paying $20 you allow us a better chance to verify your identity than via the free registration. Due to the fact that we are battling counterfeiters, we are concerned about misuse of the site. This small charge, defrays some of our expenses, will give us more information about our subscribers than free registration. It will make the site safer and more dependable. In addition, you gain the ability to post messages and questions in the Discussion Forums and you will benefit from new features as time passes.

$499/year Individual/Collector Subscription - This level of membership provides you with all the features of the site and up to 4 photo-based authentication opinions per membership year. The charge for one opinion is $249, so it represents quite a savings. This level of membership is not offered to businesses, only to individuals. Please note that personal in-hand analysis of a bottle is preferable to photo-based authentication opinions, but we offer both due to the cost savings.

Corporate

Annual Business Memberships - These are for retailers, consultants, distributors, auction houses and other industry professionals. We offer four Business/Corporate Subscription levels for on-line purchase. Larger organizations that wish to subscribe should contact us directly via the Contact Us option at the bottom of the page or by calling us at 1 617 573 0000. Each level of membership includes all the benefits of the $499 individual membership plus access to fee-based training services and educational programs. Additional bottle inquiries over and above those included with subscriptions are provided at $125 each.
