Wine Spectator Top 100 Wines

The Wine Spectator Top 100 list has been released in full, which means that once again there’s a big frenzy for all the top wines.  We’ve sold through all of the Top 10, but we have a number of wines from the just-released rest of the list.  Some of these are in stock now (like the excellent Nervi Gattinara) and some of these are pre-arrival (like the powerful Guigal Brune et Blonde) but all are worth a purchase.

Rombauer Classics

Best Prices for One of the Most Popular Wineries in California!
Rombauer is a name that needs little introduction.  One of the best-selling names in California wine history, their Chardonnay and Zinfandel set standards for big bold wines.  Those wines mirror the house style—the goal with all the wines from Rombauer is to be as delicious as possible right out of the gate.  When the family started their winery in the 80’s, this was a revolutionary notion.  Now, it seems like a no-brainer thanks to their efforts.

We’re offering stunning deals on a wide variety of their wines—a bit of a coup, if we may say so ourselves.
