Great Value Premier Cru White Burgundy for $19.99

2008 Jean-Marc Boillot Montagny Premier Cru
$1 per Bottle Shipping on Six, Free Shipping on Case

Some of the best values in white Burgundy these days are those coming from the Cote Chalonnaise region, located just south and west of Cote de Beaune appellations of St Aubin, Chassagne Montrachet, and Puligny Montrachet.

We’ve got one of those values from the Cote Chalonnaise region from Jean-Marc Boillot, a favorite producer of ours. The wine we are talking about is the 2008 Jean-Marc Boillot Montagny Premier Cru.

This Premier Cru Montagny nearly has the feel of Chassagne Montrachet with it’s richness, but finishes with the stony minerality and lemony citrus character that you generally find in Montagny. Montagny is often called the “Chablis of the South” for this reason.

The 2008 Jean-Marc Boillot Montagny Premier Cru is a bargain for a Premier Cru white at a price of just 19.99 per bottle, with $1 per bottle shipping on six and Free Shipping on a Case!

Jon Visser Wine Buyer 4 stars

"Ripe tropical fruit falvors on the nose. On the palate there is plenty of richness from the malolactic fermentation. The fruit though is more of a lemony-citrus with stony minerality. A tremendous value for a premier cru white Burgundy at 19.99!"

Great Value Sauvignon Blanc From Chile

2010 Casa Julia Sauvignon Blanc
$1 per Bottle Shipping on 6, Free Shipping on Case

The search for a quality Sauvignon Blanc under $10 is always a difficult task. For this reason we recently picked out a number of inexpensive Sauvignon Blancs from around the world to taste in hopes of finding a few quality ones.

What we discovered, which is no surprise, was that the best values seemed to be from Chile and New Zealand. Most of the New Zealand wines fell in the $10-15 range though. The Chileans were very reasonably priced below the $10 mark. The best of the group was the 2010 Casa Julia Sauvignon Blanc.

The 2010 Casa Julia Sauvignon Blanc displayed ripe honeydew melon and pear with a very soft and supple finish. It was just a perfect summer white wine, a fruit driven styled Sauvignon Blanc with a smooth finish. Josh Raynolds of the International Wine Cellar agreed with us, rating it 88 points!

Very well made Sauvignon Blanc for a bargain price at $7.99 per bottle, with $1 per bottle shipping on six and Free Shipping on a Case!

Josh Raynolds International Wine Cellar 88 Points-- Pale straw. Fresh pear, melon and quinine on the nose. Dry and nervy on entry, then fleshier in the middle, displaying chewy orchard fruit flavors and a sweet melon nuance. Nicely plump but focused, with good closing breadth and sappiness.

2007 Rasa QED Syrah Walla Walla

Everyone has heard of the world class Syrahs from Cayuse in Walla Walla Valley, Washington, who came onto the scene in 1998. Their first reviews from the Wine Spectator and the Wine Advocate were 93 and 87 respectively. Today, everything seems to be 95-98 points.

Now, the new and hot winery on the scene in Washington is Rasa Vineyards. Their 2007 Rasa QED Syrah really impressed us recently in a tasting. Only 640 cases produced. Ultra-ripe and concentrated with great length and finesse on the finish.

Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre. Best from 2012 through 2017. 640 cases made. –HS

Jay Miller, Wine Advocate 93 Points-- The first release, the 2007 QED is made up of 94% Syrah, 3% Grenache, and 3% Mourvedre sourced from several top vineyards. It was aged in 25% new French oak. Dark ruby-colored, it offers up a classy nose of pepper, mineral, smoked meat, game, spice box, and blueberry.

RP 92-95+ and and Extraordinary Value Chateauneuf

2009 Domaine La Milliere Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes

Free Shipping on Six or More, PLUS $36 off Coupon on a Case!

2009 in the southern Rhone is yet another strong vintage. It may not quite eclipse the 2007 vintage, but 2009 is regarded as an excellent vintage, as it was in most of France and Europe for that matter. One of the best 2009 southern Rhones we’ve tasted so far is the Domaine la Milliere Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes.

The 2009 Domaine la Milliere Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes is a more explosive style than previous vintages of the same wine. The 2009 has a lot more concentration, structure, and will have greater longevity in the cellar.

Robert Parker mentioned in his tasting note that it is “Dense, thick and rich, it is potentially one of the few 2009 Chateauneuf du Papes that will eclipse its 2007 counterpart.” He gave a rating of 92-95+ to the 2009 Domaine la Milliere. The plus added onto the score means he believes that the wine may possibly develop into a 96 point wine in the future. His 92-95+ rating for a 2009 Chateauneuf du Pape was the highest score given to one under $40.

We’re offering the 2009 Domaine la Milliere today at 39.98 per bottle with Free Shipping on six bottles or more plus a bonus coupon of $36 off on a Case of 12 when you use the coupon code 36OFFCASE.

Robert Parker 92-95+ Points-- The stunning 2009 Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes (from 80-100+ year old vines) gives some credibility to the vignerons’ arguments that in the drought-stricken 2009 growing season, the northern Chateauneuf du Pape parcels were less impacted than those in the south. Domaine La Milliere's vineyards are all in the northern sector. The deep ruby/purple-hued 2009 possesses abundant blackberry, black cherry and cassis fruit intermixed with notions of camphor, truffles, garrigue and licorice. Dense, thick and rich, it is potentially one of the few 2009 Chateauneuf du Papes that will eclipse its 2007 counterpart. An opulent, voluptuous texture, long finish and heady combination of herbs and super-concentrated fruit make for a wine that can be drunk upon release or cellared for 12-15 years.

Stephen Tanzer’s Highest Rated Arneis

2010 Giovanni Almondo Arneis Bricco delle Ciliegie
$1 per Bottle Shipping on Six or More Bottles!

Arneis from Italy can be an extraordinary white wine when sourced from the best vineyard sites and harvested at just the right the time.

From tasting the 2010 Giovanni Almondo Arneis Bricco delle Ciliegie we could see that had to be the case for this amazing Arneis. It displayed wonderful ripeness that you normally find from Arneis, but it also showed great acidity and minerality which you only find in the best Arneis, especially those that were grown in the Roero region of the Piedmont, like this one.

Stephen Tanzer agree with us rating the 2010 Almondo Arneis with 91 points, which is his highest score ever for an Arneis!

The 2010 Giovanni Almondo Arneis Bricco delle Ciliegie is a great bottle of wine that drinks more like a $30 bottle! Our price is 19.99 on sale, with $1 per bottle shipping on six or more bottles.

Stephen Tanzer International Wine Cellar 91 Points-- Pale, bright yellow. Ripe, vibrant aromas and flavors of lemon and lime zest, apple, crushed stone, licorice, mint and wild herbs. Penetrating and dense for arneis, with strong minerality contributing to the wine’s tactile impression. Finishes chewy and long, with a repeating note of wild herbs. An unusually serious and persistent Arneis, with no loss of immediate refreshment value.

Highest Rated Spanish Red Under $15 In Recent Wine Advocate

2009 Borsao Tres Picos
$1 per Bottle Shipping on a Case

The Borsao Tres Picos Garancha has always been among the best values coming out of Spain. The 2009 may be the their best vintage released to date. Maybe the 2009 vintage has something to do with it. It seems that all of Europe made great wine in 2009.

The 2009 Borsao Tres Picos Garancha received a 92 point score in the recently released June issue of the Wine Advocate. It was the highest scored Spanish red under $15 with over 300 reviewed! Jay Miller of the Wine Advocate commented that the 2009 Tres Picos “over-delivers in a big way.”

2009 Borsao Tres Picos Garancha for just $11.99 per bottle with $1 per bottle Shipping on a Case.

Jay Miller Wine Advocate 92 Points-- The 2009 Tres Picos is a worthy successor to the string of splendid vintages which have preceded it. Heady black cherry and blackberry aromas, Asian spices, incense, and mineral notes lead to a dense, layered, rich old-vine Garnacha that over-delivers in a big way. A tasting of every vintage of Tres Picos ever produced (back to 2001) at the Bodega in January 2011 indicates that 8-10 years of pleasurable drinking is a reasonable expectation. However, this is a wine that is ready to drink on release.

International Wine Cellar 91 Points-- Glass-staining ruby. An explosive, flamboyantly perfumed bouquet exudes scents of blackberry, cherry cola, violet and cracked pepper, plus a hint of smokiness. Deeply pitched flavors of dark fruits and candied flowers remind me of syrah, but red fruit notes emerge with air, confirming that this is garnacha, not syrah. Intense, focused and impressively persistent on the finish, which echoes the sweet red and dark fruit notes and leaves a subtle smoky quality. This serious wine should be even better in a couple of years.
