Here is the deal...

WHO ARE YOU and WHAT IS THIS?

My name is Woong Chang, and I am a sommelier based out of Washington, D.C. with 15+ years of experience in the restaurant industry. When the pandemic decimated my industry in 2020, I launched 6ft Wine Club with 2 goals in mind: COMMUNITY BUILDING and DOPE NATURAL WINES.

1. COMMUNITY BUILDING: If there is anything that this pandemic has taught me is that there’s incredible power in community, so I am building on that in the best way I know how. To me, wine is first and foremost about the people. I am a wine geek; I can geek out about carbonic maceration or phenolic ripeness for hours. But, more than anything, I just love sharing a cool and delishy bottle of natty wine with friends and family. Wine should not exist in vacuum. I get geeky about wine in this wine club, but I only use it as a catalyst to bring people together. 6ft Wine Club is my attempt to stay connected and build our community in these challenging times.

2. DOPE NATURAL WINES: In my opinion, natural wines are wines in their rawest, purest form, and I am a big advocate for both environmental and cultural reasons. The wines we feature in 6ft Wine Club are all natural, unconventional, or even “weird”, but they are always delicious. Don’t know what natural wine is? Don’t worry…we’ll get into it!

HOW IS THIS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER WINE CLUBS OUT THERE?

This is where the COMMUNITY BUILDING part kicks in.

1. We’ll be drinking the wines together. Every Wednesday at 8:30pm, I’ll broadcast live on Zoom and you can tune in. We’ll most definitely go in-depth about the wine we are drinking, and you can ask whatever questions you have about the wine or anything else. Just because we have to socially distance ourselves, doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy a dope-ass bottle of wine with our neighbors, right? It’s like having a sommelier and a bunch of wino friends in your living room but you can kick us out whenever you want ;)

2. I’m a restaurant guy through and through. I wanted to figure out a way to help my industry during these tough times. I’m proud to say that we are the first and only (but hopefully, not the last) wine club that was designed to help the restaurant industry and its workers. Each month, revenue and tips are shared with our restaurant partners and their staff. So, now when your friends/family try to talk to you about your “drinking habit”, you can tell them that you are trying to save the restaurant industry. It’s a wine club you can feel good about. ;)

OK, HOW MUCH IS IT?

Membership costs $150/month (automatically processed on the 15th of each month for the following month’s wines; tax not included).

Besides the wines and weirdo wino friends you will meet, you also get some nice perks as a 6ft Wine Club member:

1. EXCLUSIVE DISCOUNT: You get exclusive discount, availably only to 6ft Wine Club members, to our partner restaurants. SWEET!

2. CASE CLUB: Each month, you will have an opportunity to purchase the wines at or near wholesale price. We could all use more wine these days, right? Let’s load up!

3. SPECIAL OFFERINGS: You will get an access to super allocated, limited-quantity, unicorn wines that normally would not be available to the public.

4. PERSONAL ACCESS: You will have a personal access to me. Who doesn’t want that? OK, probably not many people, but hey, next time you are trying to figure out what wine to bring to your father-in-law who is a huge wine collector, I may come in handy. Just sayin’…

HOW MANY BOTTLES WILL I GET?

It will be anywhere between 4 and 6 bottles, depending on the month.

It may be red, rose, white, orange, sparkling, fortified, or some weird unicorn wine. It could be all different bottles, I may double up on some, or they could all be the same type. It all depends on the month. Maybe I’ll throw in a super rare, badass magnum. I may include cider or other fruit wines. Who knows? Simply put, “No rules, just delicious” is the motto at 6ft Wine Club.

HOW DO I GET THESE WINES?

You have 3 options:

1. You can pick up from one of our restaurant partners around DC.

2. Delivery is available for DC residents for $15.

3. Shipping is also available nationwide for $30 regardless of where you are in the country.

WHEN DO I NEED TO PICK UP THESE BOTTLES?

The pick-up day is always the first Tuesday of each month. All wines will be held for a week, and afterwards, they will be automatically delivered on the following week for $15.

DO I HAVE TO COMMIT TO ANY LENGTH?

I’m terrified of commitment too. Just ask my girlfriend about it ;) All joking aside, no commitment whatsoever. You can cancel ANYTIME you choose. No questions asked.

I’M IN, SO HOW DO I SIGN UP?!?!

Please click below and leave your information. We are dealing with mostly small artisanal natural wine producers, and the wines are often very limited in quantity. Due to this limitation, I can’t guarantee that I will be able to get you in right away. As soon as a spot becomes available, you’ll receive an invoice. It’s all on a first-come-first-served basis, so SIGN UP NOW!

WAIT WAIT…I HAVE MORE QUESTIONS.

Looking forward to having a long distance drink with you all,

Woong
