For those who like to support quality wine writing (which of course cannot be done for free) here’s an updated list of all the subscription wine publications. There exists a listed dedicated to Substack publications which is, naturally, on Substack. This is all tied in to an earlier article about new subscription websites and the trials and tribulations of starting one.
Added into this is a new look at how wine media is faring overall as well as the rise of the Substack segment.
The list is in order by price with the most expensive first. Please send an email if anything has been left out or is inaccurate and note that this is updated roughly every year or so.
