February Sale Recap

The Rare de Montille Malconsorts

Domaine de Montille remains one of the most hallowed names in Burgundy, producing a spectacular array of whites and reds, mostly from their home base in Volnay.  Their most sought after and hardest to find wines come from the Vosne site Malconsorts—a legendary vineyard adjacent to La Tache.  We have a small allocation of their classic Malconsorts from the legendary 2016 vintage arriving Friday.… Read the rest

New to the February Sale

We can’t stop adding great wines to our February Sale!  We hit the ground running with bargain pricing on Grand Cru Burgundy, top tier Brunello, collectible sweet wine and more. Now we’re adding these three beauties, freshly discounted for the rest of the month (or when we run out).

 

Cristia makes delicious, profound Chateaunuef du Pape (the ’16’s were also recently lauded by the New York Times) that delivers great value.  Tua Rita’s Redigaffi would be $700 if it came from Pomerol—especially in a landmark vintage like 2015.  These are hard to beat deals, so don’t blink and miss them!

 

New Additions to our February Sale:

 

Domaine de Cristia Chateauneuf-du-Pape Vieilles Vignes, Rhone 2015 750ML ($99.95) Was $79, Now $71.90 February Sale Special

Wine Spectator 97 points “This delivers a lush, enticing blast of cassis and raspberry and boysenberry preserve flavors, carried by a silky structure that lets the fruit play out at length, giving adequate time for black tea, singed apple wood, dried anise and fruitcake notes to fill in throughout.… Read the rest
