Wine buys.

If you are in to wines or if you are a collector or.....if you just
love a good bottle of wine, like me, there are a few 'bargain' wine
websites around.

I have found one I like a lot. It is called Wines Till Sold Out.
Their model is that they offer
a good wine at a ridiculous low price till it is sold out, then they
offer another one. You must buy a minimum number of bottles...usually
3 or 4, and they ship for FREE.

Right now, today they are having a marathon sale. And the wines are
good and the prices are wonderful.

(I don't get any kickback or anything, I just wanted to share with the
group)

Sign up...you will get email announcements when they get new wines and
the prices really are good.

Your sincerity shines through! :-)

My "house" wine is Carlo Rossi Paisano. The four-liter jug is
ungainly, so there's always a cut-glass decanter of it on my table. It
serves both as belly wash and sleeping potion.

I like Carlo Rossi Burgundy. I also decant it into a cut glass decanter
I got for $10 at Marshall's.

We have a wine rack and people know we love to do winery tours and
tastings all over the world. It's amazing how that knowledge translates
to their enjoyment of my cheap wine. :-)

BTW, some of my favorite red wines are aged in stainless steel, vintage
Tuesday.

Spelling doesn't count. Cooking does.
 
it always cracks me up when people sniff their nose at "cheap" wines, then
when its in a crystal/cut glass vessel, they are just too impressed, lol,
Lee, who drinks wines that taste good to her, lol

They put a new wine up every night at midnight. When that runs out,
the put up a new wine.

Every so often they have a "Mad Wednesday" or the like, during which
they put up a different wine every 15 minutes.

Shipping is always free for a minimum of four bottles. For some more
expensive bottles, they reduce that number to 3, 2, or even 1.

You can buy fewer bottles than the minimum, but then you must pay for
shipping.

I've been buying from them since they began operation. In that time,
I've received one bad bottle, which they replaced.

The only caveat IMO is that they do occasionally offer white wines
which are older than I would recommend drinking. Stick to the reds and
most recent or +1 vintage whites and they're great.

I can't recall the last time I saw an Amarone at less than $50 on a
wine list.

So? Amarone is highly selective and not even made every year, whereas
Valpolicella is pizza wine made by factories as well as some vineyards.

Nah, for Amarone we pay more than that here in Italy. I always paid $45 and
up in shops in the US, and that was 15+- years ago. Believe me, nothing
Italian has gone down since then.

I would be surprised to see it for $50 in a restaurant, since markup is
generally at least 100%, and it is hard to find Amarone for less than
$30. It is a very special wine with a labour intensive production
method. Bunches of ripe grapes that have been growing with lot of space
and air circulation are picked and set out to dry before being pressed.

With the unlimited supply of superior wines US $20 and under per bottle,
that any wine is that high says more about pretention and fad than about
the quality of the wine. There are some extremely good wines for $50
and up, but so what when it's trivial to find a bottle just as highly
rated from a lesser known brand for $14.95 and at $9.95 there are a few
options with a rating nearly that high?
