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!

LOIMER GRUNER VELTLINER 2011, AUSTRIA
Loimer's Kamptal DAC Grüner Veltliner should reflect the home region at its best. Freshness, typical spice components, apple and citrus hints and a vibrant acidity.

The very clear, juicy fruit and fresh acid structure play a crucial role for the mouthfeel and make this a very pleasurable wine to drink. Because of its structure and lengthy mineral palate, this is a wine of depth - even with its medium body. A perfect partner with cold cuts or fish like trout; also good with veal and ambitious chicken dishes.

LUSTAU LIGHT FINO JARANA, SPAIN
"The crisp, light-bodied, pungent, potent non-vintage Light Fino Jarana is redolent of the smells and flavors of roasted nuts. The brilliant quality of the Emilio Lustau's sherries is indisputable... Sherry remains the world's most underappreciated and undervalued Beverage."
