WM publishes a magazine every two months, and also provides digital online access to articles, reference materials and help guides. They sponsor in-person seminars and conferences with winemaker and viticultural experts, including hosting annual trips with tours of winemaking regions.

As a hobbyist, you can’t afford not to have a WM subscription. The cost is nominal at under $50 annually for both the magazine and digital access. Digital access only is under $30 annually. WM also has a free 14-day digital trial. 

While WM has a paywall, you can access any two Articles, Techniques, or Wine Wizard responses each month before hitting it.

Don’t forgo this excellent resource!
