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.

Our 2008 Go Figure Cabernet Sauvignon Lot 9 Is Nearly All Gone

2008 Go Figure Cabernet Sauvignon Spring Mountain Lot 9
Free Shipping on Orders of Six or More Bottles!

Our 2008 Go Figure Cabernet Lot 9 from Spring Mountain is just about gone. It seems that our Go Figure bottlings are selling faster and faster each time we receive a new one. A delivery with over 250 cases of the lot 9 Cab arrived only a few months ago and now we’re down to our last 40 cases or so.

Here’s your second chance to get some if you didn’t before. If you did purchase, here’s your chance to replenish your stock.

We’re selling it at a 60% lower price than the vineyard source. Sorry, we can’t tell you the winery but here’s a hint...

It’s comprised of Spring Mountain's finest brambly, wild herb mountain Cab and the valley floor's rich, red fruited and chocolate tannin Cabernet, this GF is yet another over-delivering showstopper from the same winemaker whose Cabs go for anywhere from $75 up to $125 and higher and have earned Parker scores of 94+ in the 2008 vintage (even higher than the 2007 scores.)

The 2008 Go Figure Cabernet Sauvignon Spring Mountain Lot 9 is truly a bargain at 29.99! We’re throwing in Free Shipping on six bottles as well.

Jon Visser Wine Buyer 4 stars-- Plenty of cassis, blackberries, chocolate on the mid-palate. Good amount of minerality, great structure, herbs, and a long finish. Tasted blind next to an $80 Napa Cab and this actually had better structure and more complexity which is not common of a $30 Cabernet!

Bargain Red From The Rhone Valley

2010 Domaine d’Andezon Cotes du Rhone
$1 per Bottle Shipping on a Case

Robert Parker recently commented about some of his Best Buys in the June issue of the Wine Advocate. One of those best buys was the 2010 Domaine d’Andezon Cotes du Rhone. He called the Andezon 2010 “one of the very best bargains in dry red wine that readers are likely to find anywhere in the world.”

The 2010 Domaine d’Andezon Cotes du Rhone is a blend of 90% Syrah and 10% Grenache. It has a deep purple, almost black, color. There are a lot of floral characteristics on the nose. On the palate a ton of dark fruits including blueberries and blackberries, and even a little raspberry. Full-bodied and well structured. There is a lot of wine here for a such a reasonable price!

The 2010 Domaine d’Andezon Cotes du Rhone is $11.97 per bottle with $1 per bottle shipping on a Case!

Robert Parker 91 Points-- The classic cuvee, which has long been selected by importer Eric Solomon, is their 2010 Domaine d’Andezon, a blend of 90% Syrah and 10% Grenache. While there are critics of Syrah grown in the southern Rhone, even the cynics agree that the old-vine Syrah from the Gard has a special character to it. This wine comes from 40+-year-old Syrah vines and 60+-year-old Grenache vines, bottled unfined and unfiltered after being aged in both tank and concrete. Dense ruby/purple, with a stunning nose of blackberry liqueur and jus de viande (beef/meat juices), its thrilling, intensely pure, full-bodied mouthfeel, good freshness, and striking floral character all combine for one of the very best bargains in dry red wine that readers are likely to find anywhere in the world. This is super and should continue to drink well for another 3-4 years.

Robert Parker's Highest Rated Conn Valley Ever!

2008 Anderson's Conn Valley Vineyards
Estate Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon


The 98 point 2008 Anderson's Conn Valley Vineyards Estate Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is now in stock. This appears to be the finest Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve they have ever produced. In fact, the 98 point score from Robert Parker is the highest rating he has ever awarded the wine.

Mr. Parker’s tasting note calls the 2008 Conn Valley Reserve Cabernet “black as a moonless night” and a “remarkable wine.” With comments like that, how can you resist taking at least a bottle or two?

The only bad news is that production was cut by 40% on the 2008 because of a Spring frost. The good news for you is that we have received enough to offer you this exceptional Napa Cabernet.

Our price is $79.99 per bottle on sale, but with the short production this year, we have to impose a six bottle limit per customer.

Robert Parker 98 Points-- One of the few wineries to make a 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve that eclipsed its 2007 counterpart is Anderson’s Conn Valley. A spectacular effort that is as black as a moonless night, this full-bodied wine boasts abundant aromas of creme de cassis, camphor and subtle oak presented in a voluptuously textured, full-bodied style with terrific richness and depth. Great intensity and opulence as well as a layered mouthfeel make for a remarkable wine that should age for 20-30+ years.

Wine Spectator’s Highest Rated Pinot Noir Under $17 in 2011

2009 Momo Pinot Noir Marlborough
$1 per Bottle Shipping on 6, Free Shipping on Case

We’re always on the hunt for good quality Pinot Noir that we can put on the shelf for less than $20. It’s not as easy as it sounds, though. You can find plenty of high quality Pinot Noir over $20, and plenty of so-so Pinot Noir under $20, but it’s always most difficult finding real quality Pinot Noir under $20.

We just received some of the 2009 Momo Pinot Noir from Marlborough, New Zealand. It’s blend of three different vineyards in Marlborough. It is a delicious, silky Pinot with red and black fruits, a bit of smokiness, and spice. A truly well made Pinot Noir!

The 2009 Momo Pinot Noir was the Wine Spectator’s highest rated Pinot Noir under $17 this year and they have sampled eighty different Pinot Noirs from around the world in that time.

We’re offering the 2009 Momo Pinot Noir at $16.98 on sale, with $1 per bottle shipping on six and Free Shipping on a Case!

Wine Spectator 90 Points-- A wonderfully smooth and classy expression of ripe red fruit flavors, warm baking spices, vanillin and mineral accents. Very harmonious, with a long finish. Drink now through 2016. 7,800 cases made. -MW

Limited Selection Apalta Vineyard

$1 per Bottle Shipping on 6, Free Shipping on Case

There’s no question Vina Montes produces some of the best wines coming out of Chile these days, especially with their Purple Angel and Alpha M bottlings. They also produce some of the best values coming out of Chile. One of those great values is the 2009 Montes Cabernet Sauvignon-Carmenere Limited Selection from the Apalta Vineyard.

The Montes Cabernet Sauvignon-Carmenere Limited Selection is a great little QPR that over-delivers for its $10.99 price tag. Full-bodied and packs a lot of black fruits, spice, and structure for such a reasonably priced wine.
