Good afternoon wine lovers,
Over the past three weeks, I have been monitoring the feedback from those of you who have purchased the weekly sampler cases. And it appears that we have found some winners. While all the wines have been well-received, the ones below have gained a serious following in just three short weeks. To give the rest of you a chance to see what all the buzz is about, and to help the regulars re-stock their wine racks after the Thanksgiving feast, I have put together our most recent sampler. As always, it comes with a special price, too.

THE BEST FROM RECENT SAMPLER CASES, TOGETHER AT LAST (2 BTLS EACH):

Finca Flichman Cabernet Mendoza Argentina 1999 (full bodied, concentrated fruit) 87 points
Finca Flichman Malbec Mendoza Argentina 1998 (intense color, maximum Malbec expression) 87 points
Vina Sardasol Cabernet Crianza 1995 (how did they get so much flavor at this price?!) 88 points
L'Enclave des Papes Cabernet 2000 (surprising depth, mature fruit components) 87 points
Chateau LaCroix Martelle Minervois 1999 (you may remember this, my house red, serious Syrah) 89 points
Domaine Capouilleres Ventoux 1998 (so full of blue fruits, loves the spicy stuff) 87 points

Let me tell you, this case is already a bargain at $155!!!
LOAD UP, THIS WEEK ONLY (IF THEY LAST THAT LONG) FOR JUST $132 PLUS TAX!!!
Now most of you know that these cases disappear before the week's end. So pick up the phone and call us now with your card number and we will be happy to set as many of these aside as you would like. Don't miss out! This is one heck of a great buy!!!
