Review: Some of The Wine Society’s Recent Limited Edition Releases

The best bargains; the low quantity, ‘buy now’ wines; and the cellar stockers you didn’t know you needed

Given I write all these things down, I thought I would share a review of some of my favourite wines from the recent Generation Series and Anniversary Series limited edition wines from The Wine Society.

Disclaimer before I start – I am no longer a Wine Society employee though I do a little contract work for them in the Tastings Team and the Sustainability team. I am certainly not involved in the buying or selling of the wines and these opinions are all my own.

Generation Series

Affordable wines celebrating a ‘moment in time’ in the world of wine.

This year, to celebrate the 150^th Anniversary of the company, there are four launches of brand new wines called the ‘Generation Series’ which celebrate 50 year time chunks (fancy word – era). Currently we’re on the era of 1924 to 1974 (1974 to 2024 is being released in June.) But there are still some really great limited-edition bargains to be had so here are my top picks after a tasting of them I did back in April.
