Vintage Port remains one of the best deals in the world of classical fine wine—top flight, epic bottlings from historic producers with long track records at prices that seem unfathomable given their pedigree.  These are wines that compete with Grand Cru Burgundy and First Growth Bordeaux at prices that are fractions of their peers.

We’re offering you extra discounts on these fantastic wines through the end of the weekend—10% off purchases of 6+ bottles of Vintage Port and 5% off purchases of 3-5 bottles.  

Domaine Rollin remains a bit of an open secret in Burgundy—great producer, imported by one of the best palates out there (Rosenthal), but resolutely not-talked about as much as they should be.  From a quick survey of some great Burgundy palates, it seems like the sharpest buyers know and buy these wines, but no one is willing to tell their friends—the prices are still too reasonable to let the secret out.

We love having a go-to Super Tuscan under $15 in house and the impending arrival of Tenuta Lunelli’s Aliotto is going to fill a void that the Il Poggione Rosso left when it sold out in April.  This is a fantastic value, with its 60% Sangiovese complemented by a Cab/Merlot blend that provides fruit and structure.  It’s already selling briskly, so don’t hesitate.

If you love big, powerful red wines and you’ve never had the top wines of Domaine de Fondreche, you need to rectify that situation soon.  These are some of the gutsiest, most expressive wines in the Rhone, with incredible critical praise and a price tag that’s equivalent to mid-tier CdP.  From their mostly Syrah “Divergente,” which puts a lot of $80 Hermitage to shame, to their “Il Etait Une Fois,” a Chateauneuf destroyer, their wines represent excellent values and compelling drinking experiences.
