New Lower Prices on Nine of Our Favorite Wines by the Six Pack

For Three Days Only!

We think a six bottle case is a perfect quantity of wine for serious bottles.  It’s large enough that you can get into a bottle or two early while having enough wine around to age.  Unlike a twelve bottle case, it’s small enough to be affordable and ensure the diversity of your cellar. We want you to buy more six bottle cases, so we’re creating nine new six-pack specials—only for the next three days.

Three 2017 Chateauneuf Stars
Peter Weygandt knows something about great Chateauneuf du Pape.  He’s a partner in St. Theodoric, one of our all-time favorite producers (and as close to Rayas as you can get) and imports a fantastic selection of wines from the Southern Rhone.  His three core CdP estates are Charvin, Ferrand and Raymond Usseglio, all of whom produce excellent wines at superb prices every year.

Charvin is the most resolutely old-school of the bunch, making wines that demand age but reward it with classically mature flavors and aromas.
