Dear Wine Lover,
Welcome to our WEBSITE! -- Updated May 28, 2009
Five new Bordeaux! Two of which are rare find 2000 vintage. The Graves was a special find that is selling for under $20.
Look under the Red wine tab above for the "Bordeaux" selection to see these. All are delicious and drinkable now, or good to put down for a few years of aging. A new Bordeaux discovery is CHATEAU DU PLANTIER 2003 AOC BORDEAUX RED
Priced at $9.97. A delicious wine for the price!
One of my favorites, CHATEAU LABEGORCE MARGAUX 2005 has been selected to be included in Wine Enthusiast Magazine Top 20 Wines of 2008. You'll find
it listed under the "RED" tab above, under "BORDEAUX".
We have added a great new winemaker; DOMAINE DE COUSSERGUES, a small family owned winemaker in the Pays d'Oc of Southern France. They are producing consistantly high quality through all recent vintages, proving the skills of expert winemakers. You will find all DOMAINE DE COUSSERGUES selling for less than $10.00. These wines are listed under the Red or White tabs listings of Pays d'Oc. We have created a sample box (ZPK-008 listed under Wine Sample Boxes) of this winemakers red and white selection. We have also added a value asortment of regional wines priced under $60 for the 6 bottle selection that will fill the budget minded wine lovers needs- ZPK-009. This is a great way to try these new wines.
PINOT NOIR is hot these days. You will find two vintages of GEORGES BLANC PINOT NOIR (2005 and 2006) selling for under $20, and DOMAINE DE COUSSERGUES 2007 PINOT NOIR going for less than ten bucks!
Domanine de Arton has produced it's first Rosé, a delicious and well priced wine. Check out the product description under the Rosé tab- Arton Ysé. The Fantastic Aramis Red, White and Rosé are also back in stock. (ARAMIS wines are great values and Superb quality) They are listed under SouthWest France of the Red and White tabs.
The list of Rosés continues to grow - there are now 9 different Rosés you can choose from, as well as PANNIER'S great Rosé Champagne. For those who would like to try an assortment of Rosés, we have a well priced Sample Box made up for your
experimentation. GREAT SUMMER WINES !
Don't forget to use the "SEARCH" bar. It's a great tool if you are looking for something specific such as "chardonnay". Give it a try when you are searching for a hard to find wine.
I am pleased to offer all the great new wines I have been talking about and writing about in my column in the St. Thomas Source and emailed newsletters.

-We have added a new catagory of wines that should please all: ORGANIC. All of my choices of these wines have been certified as "Organic", and they are Great! Just click on the ORGANIC tab above to see our wide selection.
For a LIMITED TIME we are offering Sample Boxes. These boxes give you the opportunity to try several different wines without having to buy 6 of each. Simply click on the "Wine Sample Boxes" tab above.
We have some fabulous Bordeaux such as the famous Chateau Siaurac, Lalande de Pomerol, 2004 which is a pure delight. The Chateau Labegorce Margaux in 2001 and 2005 Vintages, Chateau Vray Croix de Gay in both 2004 and 2000 vintages.

Please take a few minutes to review our choices. To see the selection of RED wine, click on the "RED" tab above and follow the dropdown menu to your choice of Red Wine, such as Bordeaux etc.
The Bordeaux selection is excellent, the Burgundies top of the line, and the Champagnes and other regional wines are delicious and well priced.
You will find some exceptional values; many priced at a bit more than $8 a bottle. These are quality wines at great prices
All of our wines are from small family owned and operated vineyards. I have personally chosen each and every one of these wines, (it was hard work, but somebody had to do it...) and I honestly think better French wines at better values are not to be had in the islands.
