How we earn

This page explains how this site may make money. Nothing here is a recommendation to drink, and we never sell wine ourselves.

Affiliate links (not live yet)

Some pages will eventually include affiliate links to wine retailers and clubs. If you buy through an approved link, the merchant may pay us a commission. That does not change the price you see on their site.

Right now: affiliate program applications have not been submitted. Links on Where to buy and in guides go to plain public pages with no tracking IDs. When Ryan approves signups and a program accepts us, we will replace those placeholders and update this page.

Programs we may apply to (public pages only; rates confirmed at signup):

• Wine.com affiliate program
• Naked Wines affiliates
• Firstleaf and Wine Access (typically via Impact — confirm in-network)

Amazon Associates pays 0% on Alcoholic Beverages, so we will not use Amazon links for wine bottles. Accessories (glasses, corkscrews, storage gear) may use Amazon later under other categories — again only after approval.

Domain offers

The domain fine-wine.com is available. The footer and /for-sale page accept no-price offers. That path is separate from affiliate income.

What we do not do

• Sell alcohol or ship bottles
• Invent ratings, scores or prices
• Scrape review sites
• Run analytics or ads until Ryan says yes

Age and responsibility

Content is for adults of legal drinking age (21+ in the US). Please drink responsibly. Shipping and purchase rules depend on where you and the merchant are — always follow the retailer’s terms and local law.
