Best Selection of 90+ Point Wines Anywhere!!!
We have one of the largest selections of TOP RATED WINES in the nation. Our outstanding
staff selected
many of these wines well before they received outstanding ratings allowing
us to purchase large quantities at bargain prices. These wines all received top honors
from noted wine publications including; Robert Parker's Wine Advocate,
The Wine Spectator, and Stephen Tanzer's International
Wine Cellar.
Best of all, we do not mark these wines up after they received
their high ratings. We maintain our low prices and in many cases we mark down these
wines to ensure that we have the best prices available. If a supplier marks up a wine
after it receives a high rating - we won't offer it to you as we believe we can offer you
outstanding, and high-rated wines, at good prices.
All SALE Wines featured on this page are marked down 10 - 25%. Additionally,
there is a 10% Mixed Case Discount on all non-sale wines. So when you purchase
12 or more bottles of sale and non-sale wines, you get 10% off all the non-sale wines.
You can't beat these wines, or these prices!

CASA LAPOSTOLLE CHARDONNAY CUVEE LAPOSTOLLE 2007, CHILE
Bright pale golden yellow with clean light lime notes. Intense fruit aromas mainly sweet citric style such as mandarin and tangerine, with elegant sweet touches of spices and white flowers. Elegant and concentrated. The mouth attack is rich and with a light creaminess, but with a crisp and fresh acidity at the mid palate. Long and pleasant at the finish with more sweet citric aromas. Enjoy with fresh and sophisticated fish preparations and sea food in general.
Very stylish, with nice underlying richness as the suave toast melds into the pear tartine, Jonagold apple and floral notes. Long, creamy finish has nice lingering minerality. Drink now through 2010.

BODEGAS SILVANO GARCIA DULCE MOSCATEL 2008, SPAIN
"Pale gold color. Exotic aromas of mango, papaya, peach and dried flowers. Gently sweet tropical and exotic fruit flavors stain the palate and are braced by surprising brisk acidity. Very fresh and nervy for a sweet wine, with good finishing cut. This would work well with moderately sweet rather than richer desserts, or with cheeses."

D'ARENBERG SHIRAZ/VIOGNIER LAUGHING MAGPIE 2007, AUSTRALIA
A blend of 90% Shiraz and 10% Viognier.
The intense aroma is young and forthright, offering a floral mix of peach stone, jasmine and dark maraschino cherries complexed by star anise, white pepper, black olives and fragrant garden herbs. The palate is full flavored, with beets, blueberries and red cherries and lovely cedary notes that compliment the black tea tannins and edgy mineral acidity.
critical acclaim:
"Deep, bright-rimmed ruby. Exotically perfumed, sexy bouquet of blackberry and mulberry, along with fresh flowers and incense."

TAIT "THE BALL BUSTER" SHIRAZ/ CAB/ MERLOT 2008, AUSTRALIA
76% Shiraz, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 12% Merlot aged for 12 months in seasoned, predominantly American oak. Opaque purple-colored, it offers up a fragrant perfume of pencil lead, licorice, spice box, blueberry, and blackberry liqueur. Layered, savory, and long on the palate, this well-balanced, pleasure-bent effort will drink well for another 4-6 years." - WINE ADVOCATE
"Inky ruby. Sexy aromas of blueberry, mulberry and candied flowers, with a suave, spicy quality adding interest. Lush and creamy in the mouth, offering weighty but lively dark berry flavors and showing no rough edges or tannins. Finishes sweet and penetrating, with the blueberry note strongly repeating." - INTERNATIONAL WINE CELLAR

LEVA DANIELS ALICANTE 2005, SPAIN
This custom cuvee produced for the importer (named after his son), the 2005 Leva Daniel, is a blend of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Tempranillo, 15% Syrah and 15% Merlot. Dark purple. Smoky dark berry and cherry preserve aromas are deepened by dark chocolate and espresso; a floral element emerges with air, adding an exotic quality. Brighter redcurrant and cherry flavors are focused and deep. This impressively concentrated and complex blend boasts plenty of immediate appeal but also has the stuffing to repay a few years in the cellar.

O. FOURNIER B CRUX 2005, ARGENTINA
O. Fournier's 2005 B Crux Blend is composed of 60% Tempranillo, 35% Malbec, and 5% Syrah aged for 12 months in 50% New French and American oak. Purple-colored, it offers up aromas of eucalyptus, violets, black cherry, and black raspberry. Medium- to full-bodied, on the palate it reveals complexity, plenty of succulent black fruit, excellent depth of flavor, and a lengthy finish. Give it 1-2 years to more fully unwind and drink it from 2011 to 2017.

SILVANO GARCIA MONASTRELL DULCE 2007, SPAIN
Deep ruby. Jammy cassis and boysenberry on the nose, with subtle pepper and dried fig qualities. Fleshy dark berry flavors display liqueur-like depth and clinging sweetness and are firmed by supple tannins. Finishes with a kick of baking spices. Not as weighty or syrupy as most late-harvest wines and a good call for lighter desserts.

ISOLE E OLENA CHIANTI CLASSICO 2007, ITALY
80% sangiovese, 15% canaiolo nero and 5% syrah. Moderately saturated red. Complex aromas of red fruits, gunflint, white pepper and violet. Then sweet, supple and silky in the mouth, with rather suave red fruit, tobacco and sweet spice flavors. The firm finish features building chewy tannins, sneaky length and a persistent floral note. Though it's already quite accessible, I'd cellar it for another couple of years and enjoy for another ten after that.

ARROWOOD SYRAH SARALEE'S VINEYARD 2006, CALIFORNIA
Intense dark purple colors lead to aromas of black cherry, anise, spiced plums and hints of black pepper. To increase color and aromatics, we co-ferment with a small amount of viognier. Aged in French oak for 18 months, and bottled unfined and unfiltered, this luscious, sexy Syrah should provide plenty of pleasure over the next 6-7 years.
