Annual Pre-Thanksgiving Wine Sale Nov 14-19

Beat the rush and crowds and tock up now on full and half  mixed cases of wine for your Thanksgiving Day Celebration. Discounted up to 15% off full cases.

We have two Turkey Day Wine Picks to make the selection easier for you.


2008 Domain Diochon Moulin-a-Vent Cru Beaujolais
Crus Beaujolais are my preferred reds for Thanksgiving - they are light  and flowy, complex and juicy, with great dried raspberry and floral notes. Lush and food-friendly. 

Throw two bottles of the 2008 Domaine Diochon Moulin-a-Vent in the fridge for 15 minutes before Thanksgiving dinner and watch your friends and family light up as they try it for the first time. Bright, juicy, friendly and quaffable, and with al the elegance you expect from a Grand Cru. 


2009 Gustave Lorentz Pinot Gris
A lush elegant Alsatian white, just begging for turkey. Fermented in stainless steel, this wine is fleshy without being fatty, aromatic an delicious. 
With notes of peach, stone fruits and white peper, this wine will be a lovely companion to your turkey, cranberry sauce and sweet potato casserole.
