Welcome to The Wine Concierge!
Hey there, my wine-loving friends!
Welcome to The Wine Concierge — your curated home for wines crafted by women, BIPOC, and culturally diverse winemakers.
If you love discovering delicious wines without the jargon, you’re in the right place.
We hand‑select every bottle from boutique vineyards so you can shop confidently, explore new flavors, and support underrepresented winemakers with every sip.
Whether you’re here to learn, shop, or join our wine community, we’ll guide you every step of the way.~Cheers, Leslie
What Is Shades of Vino
Shades of Vino is The Wine Concierge wine club — and it's less of a subscription and more of a community you didn't know you needed.
Every quarter, we curate a selection of wines from women winemakers, Black-owned producers, and minority-owned estates from around the world. Bottles you won't find at the grocery store. Stories worth telling.
But the wine is just where it starts.

Importer's Corner 2026 Autumn Box
Autumn invites us to embrace change - deeper colors, evolving textures, cooler evenings, and wines that shift right along with the season. Inspired by that transition, this quarter's Importer's Corner collection, curated by Alyssa Wolf of Red Wolf Imports and offered exclusively through The Wine Concierge, explores four distinctive expressions from Portugal and South Africa: a vibrant Vinhão red made to take a chill, a dry Stellenbosch rosé, a fragrant white blend, and a deeper, structured Portuguese red. Together, these wines create Autumn’s Evolving Palette: Fragrant, Layered & Expressive, moving from lighter, aromatic styles toward greater depth and structure while showcasing how place, vintage, climate, and the winemaker's hand shape what arrives in the glass each year.
