and more!
We show Charlotte based importer Eric
Solomon Selections some serious love here at winestore., but there is
very good reason. There are lots of folks who import wines; and Solomon
is one of the most revered and influential wine importers in the
business today. His wine portfolio from Spain and France is scary good,
especially if you are an importer trying to compete with him. His
amazing stable of wines includes Marcoux, Benjamin Romeo, Clos Erasmus,
La Peira, Janasse, Herencia Altes, Mas Doix, Garrigue, Closa Batllet,
Chateau Tirecul, Lafage ...and the list goes on and on. These properties
are all the rage at the moment among the critics, and for good reason.
They make utterly lush and delicious wines, and yet they are not wines
that have sold their souls (ya know, with high alcohol, over-extraction,
too much oak and the like) in order to get blessedly high scores from
he-who-must-not-be-named. These wines are rich and impressive but they not only retain their souls, they HAVE soul. Character. Personality. Whatever.
Solomon's book is an embarrassment of riches. We are delighted that he lives in Charlotte and that we have the opportunity to offer so many of his fabulous wines. And we are even more excited to show you the breadth and depth of his portfolio this weekend. The wines will be up on the machine all day Saturday (and a few are already up!). We hope to see you!!
Just some of the SPECIAL DEALS:
2004 Domaine de la Janasse Cuvee Chaupin (Magnum)
Release Price: $150.00
Winestore Price: $99.99 (net)
SAVE 33%
Domaine Janasse delivers juicy, powerful Chateauneuf-du-Pape and the 2004 Chaupin in magnum is turning into something serious silky over the next few years.
2000 Artadi Pagos Viejos
Release Price: $90.00
Winestore Price: $59.99 (net)
SAVE 33%
Where in the US can you find 13 year old Rioja for 30% less than the release price from a top rate producer like Artadi? Answer is only here at winestore. Artadi is not simply a great producer of Rioja, but is one of the most important producers in Spain. Take that information and do with it what you will...this will dominate California Cabs at twice the price.
2010 Clos Erasmus "Laurel"
Regular Price: $49.99
Winestore SIX PACK Price: $39.99
SAVE 45%
Only 6 six packs remain of this vintage. I wonder if it will even make it to the tasting!
2009 Benjamin Romeo Predicador
Regular Price: $34.99
Winestore Price: $24.99
SAVE 29%
A fascinating vintage in Rioja, and a select Rioja made by the winemaker some knowledgeable Spanish critics think is one of the top two or three producers in this legendary area.
