Gift Idea Pick #4
2019 Podere Brizio Brunello Di Montalcino
SRP: $95.00
On Sale: $59.99
Why we love this?
A massive Brunello. From one of the best vintages in history. 95 points WS. Deeply Discounted. The ultimate wine-lover gift!
95 Points Wine Spectator:
"Black cherry, blackberry, plum, violet and mineral flavors are the hallmarks of this pure, dense and robust red, which is squarely in the fruity camp, yet bumps up against pointed tannins on the finish. The lasting impression is both fruit and tannins, so this should work itself out in a few years. Best from 2027 through 2043. 3,000 cases made, 1,600 cases imported. -BS"
94+ Points Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"The organic Podere Brizio 2019 Brunello di Montalcino (in a heavy glass bottle) shows pretty aromas of crushed stone, dried raspberry, redcurrant, cherry cola and blue flower. The elegance and finer qualities of this wine are what stand out most, and you get pretty definition and sharpness along the way. The finish is lean, tonic, lifted and bright. Some 38,000 bottles were made. Great job."

Our #1 Value California Cabernet, this stunner is silky smooth and drinks incredible right now or will age for years to come!
Classic Lodi Cabernet Sauvignon with rich dark fruit flavors and a touch of spice and bramble in the finish. This is the perfect bottle of Cab to buy by the case and enjoy through the end of the year!
"Our Lodi Cabernet Sauvignon features a bold, rich character. Full-bodied, with complex yet approachable notes of blackberry, black cherry, and plum. It offers a juicy mouthfeel, well-balanced with a smooth, long finish. Enjoy it on its own or with rich, flavorful dishes." - Winery

Wine Talk Wednesday is back!
If you have never attended Wine Talk Wednesday in the past, you've been missing out.
To give you a brief breakdown of what WTW is, it's an in-store wine sampling and seminar held at our physical store in Springfield, NJ.
While sampling wine is by far the best part, we also provide a fun educational side to the wine sampling that helps our customers understand the history, winemaking and the style of the particular wine in front of them.
You may say to yourself, "WOW this is amazing", but what's even better is that it's ALL FREE.
We kindly ask you to RSVP so we can gauge how many people we will be hosting!
