The Wine Club - Makati

Have been a buyer of wine from the Wine Club for more than 12 years, I would say cases and cases of wine. About a year ago, they recommended wine that was about 2k a bottle. I obliged and bought a case, which is 12 bottles. I opened a bottle about a week after and it was bad. The cork was disintegrating and the wine tasted like vinegar. I thought this was just one bottle but each one I opened was equally bad. I had 6 left and tried to return it. They took the bottles but never refunded me for the 6 much less the 12 even if I was asking for just store credit to buy other wines. It's been more than 6 months and no resolution as every time I call they give me the run around despite having been a loyal good paying customer for more than 12 years.

The Wine Club is a wine lounge where you can have a memorable night out. At the same time, it’s a distributor that offers a wide range of collectible Napa Valley and Sonoma wines to many distinguished hotels and restaurant chains nationwide. Their food menu is not extensive but quality of dishes is pretty solid. Topped with pepperoni, Italian sausage, and minced beef, the flatbread (PhP 500) comprised of a good balance of salt, spice, and a little spike of acidity. Mildly bouncy, the pepperoni had a meaty chew and the textural differences with the rest of the components were satisfactory. The crust was amply topped with cheese that added salt and a more depth of flavor to the pie. Fresh Basil and Pistachio Nut Pesto Pasta (PhP 490) was rich, appetizing, and deeply flavorful. The pistachio nut mixture was finely granular yet still contributing to its nutty, herbaceous, and lemony profile. Adding cheese would certainly make a savory topping. Presented with a deep, sweet, crisply charred crust, Grilled Tiger Prawn Sautee (PhP 590) was a hit. The shrimps were juicy and tender with a crunchy pop, and the layered flavors wonderfully burst with a decisive snap in our mouth. Cabernet Braised Kitayama Wagyu Shank (PhP 880) hit all the beefiness and represented a perfect bite of food. We’re happy that it didn’t fall short of our expectation. The beef shanks were luxuriantly rich, moist, and juicy with intramuscular fat. For our wine fix, we chose Long Barn Chardonnay 2014 (PhP 250/glass) and Bogle Merlot 2014 (PhP 280/glass) to pair with meat, seafood, pizza, and pasta. Long Barn Chardonnay 2014 is citrus, well-balanced, and almost full in the mouth. The palate is coated with notes along with hints of apricot, apple, balanced aromas of pear and vanilla, and an oak taste on the finish. On the other hand, Bogle Merlot 2014 tasted fresh with plum and fruity flavors with a touch of earth. Texture was smooth and lightly tannic. Overall, this medium-bodied red wine is great for sipping with food. rochkirstin.com

I had the chance of visiting Wine Club before because it was a part of Zomato's Makati foodcrawl (Thanks guys!). Wine Club, from its name, is a restaurant that makes wine, its main focus. It's even more apparent as soon as I enter the restaurant, I saw shelves upon shelves packed with wines. This might alienate some, especially those who are not really fond of this beverage, but I'm fine with it. Apparently, the owner doesn't only sell wine, he also distributes it nationwide! Great for those who likes wine and those who are big fans of Wine Club's offerings. They are not just great with wine, they also make great pizza! We got to try out their 4 cheese pizza and the classic pepperoni pizza which are 12 inches thin crust pizza. The cheese used in these pizza is really good and the the crust is really crispy.  Overall, I find the Wine Club is perfect for those who are looking for a quiet night time with a couple of friends looking for a wonderful meal over some wine. yogoandcream.com
