Calling All Prisoner Fans!

Taste the Wines of Orin Swift!
Saturday February 4th, 2012
11am - 8pm
Featuring:
2010 Orin Swift "The Prisoner"
2009 Orin Swift "Saldo"
2010 Orin Swift "Palermo"
2009 Orin Swift "Mercury Head"
It's release time for two of the best selling Cabernet based wines in the Orin Swift portfolio, Mercury Head and Palermo. Knowing that people are flat out obsessed with these wines (this is not a joke - just do a google search), we are going to celebrate by putting up Orin Swift wines on the machine all day on Saturday. If you are loving you some California wine lately, be comforted in knowing the fruit for most of these wines is sourced from Howell Mountain, Spring Mountain, Oakville, Rutherford, and Saint Helena. Those regions are to wine what UNC and Duke are to College Basketball - show stoppers (heck, the label for Mercury Head is a Mercury Head dime - totally cool!).
The hype machine is already in full gear for all of these wines, so be sure to swing by on Saturday and see what all the fuss has been about!

2007 Tikalo Rubens Tempranillo
Release Price: $12.99
Winestore Price: $7.99 (net)
SAVE 38%
Lowest Price in the USA
Only 19 cases available!
If you are anything like us, you are constantly looking for a great $7ish wine to drink on a Tuesday night. Well, we think we found one for you! Rubens is 100% Tempranillo and full of lush, ripe fruit and almost no tannin at all. That means super easy drinking at a super friendly price point of $7.99. Is this wine going to change your life? No, it will not (but we are still looking for the one that will). Is this wine going to make some magic happen with that 45,000 calorie super dip you are preparing for the Super Bowl party? Yes, it will.
The back of the label says "To be enjoyed with all your meals". While we think that might be a bit aggressive, for $7.99 it should at least make it into the rotation for a few of them!

Pinot Noir Battle Royale!
Saturday January 28, 2012
11am-8pm
Featuring:
2009 Belle Glos "Meiomi" Pinot Noir (California)
2008 Domaine Serene "Yamhill Cuvee" Pinot Noir (Oregon)
2009 Arterberry Maresh "Dundee Hills" Pinot Noir (Oregon)
2009 Ken Volk "Aqua Pumpkin" Pinot Noir (California)

2007 Domaine Serene "Evenstad Reserve" Pinot Noir (Oregon)
2008 Merry Edwards Russian River Valley Pinot Noir (California)
2008 Tantara "T Solomon Wellborn" Pinot Noir (California)
Calling all Pinotfiles!!! This weekend you will finally have the chance to taste some of the best Pinot Noir being produced in the United States. We've decided to go ahead and put together some of the most sought after and delicious Pinot Noirs in the United States and we're calling it the Pinot Noir Battle Royale!
You'll be able to compare California blockbusters from Caymus (producer of Meiomi), Williams Selyem, Tantara, Hirsch, Merry Edwards, and Ken Volk against two titans of Oregon (and US) Pinot Noir - Domaine Serene and Arterberry Maresh. We always love putting great wines up against each other - it not only gives you the ability to really taste and see what type of styles you like, but you are also given the chance to compare and contrast notes with other fellow customers who are just as excited as you are about these great wines.
The tasting is simple. Show up on Saturday, grab your tasting cards and sample each of these fantastic Pinots to decide which producer and style you love best. We'll have paper and pens for you to make notes and great pricing should you feel the urge to bring home a few of these phenomenal wines.
This tasting should prove to be one of our best so far and we look forward to seeing each of you on Saturday!
Cheers,
The winestore. teamLove Rombauer but want something less expensive?

Last Call on Trefethen Double T Chard!
2008 Trefethen Double T Chardonnay
Winery Price: $17.00 (Click HERE to see)
SALE PRICE: $12.99 (net) per bottle
SAVE 24%
It's been a fun ride with the 2008 Trefethen Double T Chardonnay - and now we are down to our last 20 cases of this vintage. You may remember this time last year we introduced this wine into the marketplace, and it has been on a rocket ship to the moon ever since.
Rombauer Chardonnay is sacred ground for many...and with that being said we must let you know that the #1 question we get asked by Chardonnay fans is "I love Rombauer but I don't want to pay $27 for it - do you have anything in the $10-$15 range." For many of you, if sales are any indication, this has been your "go to" Chardonnay over the last 12 months. Heck, at 24% off the winery price and 53% lower than our $27.99 price on Rombauer Chardonnay, this is some pretty strong value.
We'll have the wine up on our tasting machines in case you have been missing out on this gem. Will you think it is as great or better than Rombauer? We think so, but we have been wrong before (but it was only one time :)
So enjoy this tasty Chardonnay and we look forward to hearing what you think!

Posted by Winestore 11 days ago
Winner!
2008 Rockus Bockus Proprietary Red
Winestore Price: $12.99
No, we are not making this up. The winner of the 5th Annual Silver Oak Blind Tasting was Rockus Bockus Proprietary Red. It is a blend of Cabernet and Zinfandel from Sonoma. It is $12.99 per bottle. It is kinda blowing our minds. Rockus Bockus is new to the wine scene, as the winery was established just a couple years ago by Jeff Bundschu from Gundlach Bundschu.
The average price of the wines in the tasting last Saturday was $33.61 per bottle, so competition was fierce. That being said, this wine is just flat out delicious. It's also probably important to point out that not only was Rockus Bockus the most popular wine of the tasting, it was also the wine that most people thought WAS Silver Oak. We're not going to try and read too much into that, but it's pretty awesome.
So here we are, just giving you the 411. It may be safe to say if you haven't tried a bottle of this (and you enjoy bold red wine), you are missing out in a big way!
