We are not IT guys trying to make a quick buck by cashing in on the recent wine boom. Our website was born as an extension of a store that was opened in 1934. We know wine because we drink it and thoroughly enjoy it too.
Every day, we strive to know more, learn more and bring you the best that the wine world has to offer. We LOVE finding a great wine at a great price because we're taking a few cases home too.
You can be rest assured that everything on our website is recommended by someone; either by a knowledgeable wine reviewer or us. And just because a wine gets a great review doesn't mean we'll automatically carry that wine. It has to meet certain standards, and first and foremost, it has to be good.
Case in point: At a company wine dinner, we blind tasted a handful of wines. All of which we carry here. All were great in their own way, but the stunner of the night was a beautifully drinking Pinot Noir. We do a sort of "20 Questions" exercise to determine the exact wine. After more than 20 questions, we were still perplexed. Old world, right? Younger than 2002? Really? The reveal: 2009 Faiveley Volnay Fremiets ($64.99). What?!?! It drank like a 2002 - all bright fruit, but balanced with well integrated tannins with nice grip. We were all stunned to see it was a 2009. I'm now convinced 2009 is a better vintage young than 2005 was.
If you know us and buy with us already - thank you! If you've just discovered us - welcome! You're going to LOVE the wine we carry.
