Wine is delicious and I drink it semi-often. I tend to go for mid-range bottles — not the cheapest stuff available but definitely not the expensive stuff either. All I want is something enjoyable to drink that tastes nice and doesn’t cost a fortune. Vintage Roots offers some good ones, and not only are they looking to give a dozen bottles away free, but you can also get paid to drink them!
- Free wine and free cash? Sign me up. Vintage Roots is going to give one lucky person two cases of wine: a Vintage Roots’ Organic Everyday Case, as well as a Rosé Summer Six. That’s 12 bottles of wine that you don’t have to share with a single soul if you don’t want to, and it’s totally free. Oh, and you’ll also get £250 ($327) for your troubles.
- Wait, this is a real job? Yup, it totally is – you can actually get paid to drink free wine. “Do you dream of spending your summer sipping wine in the garden? Do you consider yourself a wine connoisseur? If this sounds like you, we may just have the perfect job for you…” the website reads. “Whether you are a red wine, white wine or rosé wine fan, Vintage Roots are looking for someone to become a professional summer wine taster, sampling and tasting the finest organic wine from the comfort of their own home all while earning £250 at the same time.” Tell me more!
- Applying is pretty easy! So how can you put yourself in the running for this job? It’s pretty simple. All you need to do is post a picture of yourself, selfie or taken by someone else, drinking a glass of wine on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, tagging @VintageRootsltd on Facebook and Twitter, and @VintageRootsWines on Instagram. Oh, and you’ll need to remember to tag #summerwinetaster #comewinewithme while you’re at it. See? simple!
- Sadly, this is only open to UK residents. Because Vintage Roots is a British company, you’ll need to live in the UK in order to apply for the job. If you do, you’re in luck. You can enter until August 31 and the winning candidate will be announced on September 4. You’ll get your wine soon after and your cash around September 30.
