2024 Bleu Blanc Thau Rosé
Release Price: $15.00
SALE Price: $7.99 (net)
SAVE 47%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
The south of France has been home to a sea of vines for centuries, though its heyday was the late 19th century after the newly built railroad allowed shipments to fill the carafes of Parisian cafes. Cotes de Thau is gaining notoriety for its rosé wines grown beneath the former volcano of Agde, with a mix of garrigue, sand, nearby sea and lagoons. This is a blend of Cinsault and Merlot made in a crisp, clean, even racy style of pink wine.
2024 Dosoris Lane Rosé
Release Price: $20.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net)
SAVE 50%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Isn’t rosé wine one of the clearest harbingers of springtime? Sure, rosé is enjoyed year-round now, but as outdoor drinking becomes an actual possibility, the arrival of cool, wet drinks is the true representative of the renewal of life, at least for the wine lover. This blend of Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah hails from the South of France, where outdoor dining and rosé wines are de rigeur, made possible by the bright Mediterranean and its warming winds. You might not be traveling there right now, but a wine like Dosoris Lane can at least put you in mind of calmer times and sunny climes.
2024 Balcon Sur La Mer Rosé
Release Price: $20.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net)
SAVE 50%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Balcon delivers everything you want in a great rosé in spades. This unctuous pink wine is dry, stony, fruity, lengthy. Comprised of Grenache, Grenache Gris and Mourvedre, there’s a lot more here than many a rosé that you’ve tasted before.
2024 SWIMBAD Rosé
Release Price: $15.00
SALE Price: $7.99 (net)
SAVE 47%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Rosé is the tipple of the tempting whether we are in Touraine, Tempe, Tuscaloosa, Tuscany or Saint-Tropez. Provence, the archetypal French vacationland, is the poster child for what modern rosé ought to be. Pale, quenching, lip-smacking.
Highland Falls THC Seltzers
SALE Price: $17.99 (net)
These THC seltzers have become so popular with our customers we had no choice but put them in the Labor Day Sale!

I have tasted the final version twice now, and I am willing to put my professional reputation on the line here and tell you that this may be the best sub $40 Pinot Noir you are ever going to try.
2021 Z/N Zinfandel
Release Price: $20.00
SALE Price: $7.99 (net)
SAVE 60%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
I know, I know, Zinfandel is the same grape as Italy’s Primitivo. But is it? Even the best Primitivo doesn’t have the fruitiness, the power, the sheer intensity of California’s best Zins. And how do we describe that fruitiness? I always find that it has something like more red fruits than black fruits, with a little hint of red currant jelly right at the end that is part of the easy friendliness of the grape.
2022 Cape Charles Chardonnay

Alexander Valley is distinct in its pure friendliness; the wines are genuinely enjoyable from day one, expansive of fruit and reliably supple throughout their lives.

Over four generations of winemaking, the Vellas family have slowly assembled a strong group of properties in Languedoc and Roussillon. In beautiful sites like Mas du Pont they have created not only a vast set of vineyards but also farmlands, bull breeding, equestrian centers, olive groves and more. With Cabernet spread out across these sunny and Mediterranean climes, ripeness and aromatics are both in strong supply.
2023 Sonoma Cutrer Russian River Ranches Chardonnay

It's Sonoma Cutrer - what more do we really need to say? Oak, Vanilla, butter - all that you expect from a great California Chard and then a little extra thrown in for good measure...

Lowest Online Price in the USA!
When the French decided to build the Canal du Midi, they unsurprisingly chose a portion of the Pays d’Oc that is flatter and less mountainous than much of the regional landscape. The climate is different, needless to say, but not so very different from sunny California, and the wine has some of that same buttery character that West Coast Chardonnay exemplifies.
2023 Benieres Pinot Noir
Release Price: $20.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net)
SAVE 50%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Fresh and fruity Pinot Noir from the Pays d'Oc, a region warm enough and varied enough to allow even persnickety Pinot Noir to find its happy place.
2020 Peynaud Bagnac Bordeaux

SAVE 60%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Bordeaux has had a string of highly touted vintages: 2018 comes to mind, tasting like Napa Cab blends. Then along comes 2020, another vintage for everyone to talk about. You should check out this blend of 65% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauv and 5% Cab Franc.
2022 Tatiana Guillot Julienas

SALE Price: $9.99 (net) per bottle
SAVE 50%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Most Americans have no idea how great the Beaujolais region has become. The last two decades have seen it grow, crafting some of the most intriguing AND affordable wines of France. It’s important to understand not all Beaujolais is the same, if you think Beaujolais Nouveau represents the character of Beaujolais, you’re dead wrong. Like the best Beaujolais, Julienas is firm, intense, tannic and nothing at all like the simple fruity wine from past.
2022 Pabellon Rioja

The powers behind Bodegas Lo Nuevo have a remarkable set of vineyards in many of the sexiest parts of Spain, and they always bring some crazy value to it. This is no exception, and is one of the most exciting sub $15 red wines we have tasted in a long time!
2024 Prejuges Chardonnay
Release Price: $18.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net)
SAVE 44%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Cabardès has not always been a favored site but its intense limestone soils are beginning to consistently offer Burgundy-like nerve. It’s tasty wine, but maybe the best part of the story is that Cabardès is named for the 13th Century Lords of Cabaret – seriously. Picture Joel Grey or Alan Cumming astride white stallions, swords a-glinter in the sunlight, horses prancing. Okay, you just can’t un-see that image, can you? Drink this incredibly tasty number and try to forget we said this.
2024 Dosoris Lane Proprietary Red
Release Price: $20.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net)
SAVE 50%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Maybe one of the most hyped up wines this year, Dosoris Lane is all about showing what type of crazy quality you can produce for under $15. Think black pepper notes from a little Syrah. The black fruits in the middle suggest a little bit of Cabernet; the red fruits and white pepper hint at Grenache. Put it all together and you have some epic red wine from the sunny south of France, with expansive and bright flavors.
2023 Chateau Grand Billard Blanc
Release Price: $25.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net)
SAVE 60%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
If you ask any wine expert to name the value wines, they will likely reel off only a few dozen well-known names, and some of them count Grand Billard amongst them. It’s the basic Sauvignon Blanc blend, with mostly used barrels to keep the cost reasonable. This is from the critically raved about 2023 vintage so check out the wine to see what the fuss is all about.
2021 Kingstree Proprietary Red
Release Price: $35.00
SALE Price: $14.99 (net)
SAVE 57%

I'll be honest. Wines of this quality at this price are few and far between as vintners continue to try and stretch their prices further and further. It's a big and bold red from your friends at Foley Family...these guys know what they are doing!
2023 Dosoris Lane Blanc
Release Price: $15.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net)
SAVE 33%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Sometimes you just have to embrace the mystery of wine; truth be told, we don’t know which grapes are in this wine. They wouldn’t tell us, but we didn’t care after we tasted it. Neither merely crisp or full and rich; the wine straddles a really nice place that is refreshing and patio-perfect, but that has some weight and character to handle rich fish or even grilled chicken.
2022 Darley Proprietary Red
Release Price: $45.00

SAVE 43%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Sure, most people think that France is neatly laid out, codified and completely explored but, outside of Burgundy and Bordeaux, there are still plenty of vineyards that deserve more attention. The Loire Valley demands that kind of recognition and, in the era of climate change, it is increasingly a source of delicious wines. Sauvignon Blanc used to be notable only from Sancerre and Pouilly Fumé. Equal measures of fruit and mineral.
2023 The Palace Thief #2
Release Price: $78.00
SALE Price: $24.99 (net)
SAVE 68%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Most of the Napa OGs have been bought out or at least changed hands numerous times. The winery behind Palace Thief Napa, starting in 1969, has remained owned and run by the same family. Now, it’s a third-generation project but the critical piece, the vineyards, is really what has allowed this family to achieve such demonstrated excellence. The Cabs are firm, powerful and very classically Napa-esque.

The vast vineyards of France’s Languedoc hold many well-known grapes, including Chardonnay that is friendly and accessible. This one is gathered from organic vineyards on the Aspères plateau with its excellent marl and limestone soils. The winemaking is straightforward – stainless steel fermenters and just enough lees stirring to enrich the texture and flavors. We love finding wines like this!
2024 Bleu Blanc Thau

This blend of Picpoul and Terret is so tasty, so refreshingly crisp (but still weighty enough to matter) and, dare we say it, a freaking value that practically crawled into our bag and said take me home the first time we tasted it.

After killing it with the AVERÆN project in Oregon, the Banshee gang is hard at work again in France. They’ve grabbed some vineyards in Gascony and we’re smart enough to snag some of their early efforts. There’s not a lot of Sauvignon Blanc grown in these spots, but what is there produces wines like this one: poised, more bright melon and citrus - just the way it should be.
2023 Gil Family Minairo Priorat
Avg Vivino Price: $31.74 (HERE)
SALE Price: $14.99 (net)
SAVE 53%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
The fame of Priorat is both recent and ancient; the beautiful Escaladei (Steps of God) mountain formation frames the monastery of Santa Maria of Escaladei; it was founded in the 12th century by Alfonso the Chaste (poor guy). And over the last few decades, the slate and quartz soils called llicorella generate super low yields and super concentrated wines. Grenache and Carignan dominate but this blend includes small amounts of Syrah and Merlot; six months in French oak barrels offers a wine that is powerful but still framed by useful acidity.
2023 Domaine Priou Pinot Noir
Release Price: $18.49
SALE Price: $10.99 (net)

Lowest Online Price in the USA!
François et Jean-François Priou mostly grow Sauvignon Blanc along the River Cher; their Touraine Sauvignon Blanc is a great value. Certain places that didn’t used to be able to ripen certain grapes are finding it easier to show off. While you might not think of the Loire Valley for Pinot Noir, it’s routinely grown there and, if you haven’t had a chance to drink any of the ethereal versions of the grape in this region, now it’s your chance.

Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Until recently, for Australian producers (and others), Prosecco was a grape and not a place. Recent changes Italy made to how Prosecco is classified, by renaming the grape in these wines as Glera and deeming Prosecco a place and not a grape, mooted any possibility of other countries insisting that they were just naming their wines Prosecco as a varietal designation. Maybe it helped, but Prosecco blew up, internationally speaking. Raffaello is by far, in a sea of Prosecco producers, the best value we have ever tasted.

The only time this year at $9.99 per bottle...
First time we've ever been able to put it on sale!
If I told you, to help close out the summer, that we have some rosé from the Loire that we can get to you (tariff included!) for less than you can buy it for in France - would you be interested in that?
Oh, and the price is $9.99 per bottle?
I mean, I am all in on stuff like this!!
What is the story here?
Founded in 1986 by Alain Bouleau and Patrice Laurendeau in the southern Loire Valley, Domaine de Terrebrune has built their reputation on crafting exceptional rosé...so much so that rosé now makes up two-thirds of their production. Their dry rosés offer more body and depth than the lighter Provençal styles, reflecting the Loire’s strength as a source for structured rosé wines.
All that is wine speak for just saying these guys absolutely crush rosé, and to drink it for less than $10 makes me giddy 😂
100% chance I am drinking this tonight. Let's do this!

*Curbside Pickup Always Available*
Once a year, at the end of August, we put our best selling wine of all time on sale for $9.99 per bottle.
So, for only the 11th time EVER, this week is your chance to secure some Snowvale Cabernet at $9.99.
For the better part of a decade now, Snowvale Cabernet has dominated the sales charts - and the wine shows no signs of slowing down. It may be the best Cabernet value on the market right now.
Wine legends Baron Ziegler and Rob Fischer (you can read a recent Bloomberg article on Baron here) are masters of their craft, and the 2022 Snowvale is a perfect example of why what they do is so special.
This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon represents a pretty unreal value. As we've told you before, there are even stores in NC selling this wine for $31! (Picture below). I was also told of a restaurant in Charlotte charging $20 for kids buttered noodles. The world seemingly has lost its mind...but not these guys.
In an ocean full of uninspiring Cabernet at this price point, Snowvale just works. Tuesday night Tacos? Boom. Wednesday night burgers. Done. Saturday night Netflix. But of course. (anyone watching anything that is must see?)
So let the mayhem begin! One week only at $9.99 - until next year!
Happy Tuesday all!

Shock Winner of the Caymus Blind Tasting - Last Call at $9.99!
My favorite white wine in the store...
Burgundy Lovers rejoice!
We've been carrying this wine since last fall, nearly one year ago, and this is the first time we have been able to send a newsletter out about it...
Every other time it has landed the wine has sold out before we have had a chance to even tell anyone about it.
Why is this?
Well Gil Family Estates contacted us last fall and asked if we would be willing to take a huge chunk of Flor de Rejon, the top end cuvee from Bodegas Tridente, at a sharp price.
So yes, premium wine from the same people behind Clio, El Nido, Atteca, Juan Gil and other amazing properties available for the lowest price ever offered globally...we are interested.
Then we tasted the wine.
There is good reason the wine sold every time it landed before we could even mention it. We put it on the tasting machines.
If you like BIG red wine, this may be the best under $20 option you are ever going to try...and I don't say that with any hesitation.
Only thing I am hesitating about is will this wine sell out by the end of the day 😂
Just for fun, we'll have it on the tasting machines at all stores for just $0.01 all weekend long!
TGIF!!!!!

You don't know what you're missing...
Sparkling that is a do not miss
Did someone ask for 100% Pinot Noir Rosé, for only $9.99, from Sancerre winemaking superstar Antoine de La Farge?
'Cause if you did, your ship has come in!
Making rosé is a simple enough process. Since the color is in the skins for all but a handful of grapes, you simply crush the grapes and leave the juice and skins to sit together for a few hours. How many hours? Well, that depends upon the rosé color that you’re seeking. Here Antoine employs what he calls a “back of the truck maceration”, by leaving the juice and skins together just long enough to transport the must from the vineyard to the winery. You get some strawberry and red currant notes, and the wine is a light, pretty pink from only an hour or two on the skins.
Here is what I know for sure:
- I don't know of anyone else using that winemaking method for rosé like this - and I love it.
- I don't know of any other 100% Pinot Noir rosé at $9.99 per bottle - if they are out there let me know 'cause we want to taste them!
- I'm not sure I could love this wine any more
Summer is still rolling on, right?
I'm picking up some for Labor Day weekend too - because I can't help myself! 😂

You don't know what you're missing...
We've had a wave of new products enter the store in the last few weeks, and this may be the one I am most excited about...
Back in February, the people behind our #1 selling and all time most dominant white wine, Bleu Blanc Thau, told us they were launching a sparkling wine based off of the same juice. Obviously this information got us excited...I mean REAL excited. But you can't set yourself up for disappointment, right? Manage expectations. Maybe it won't be amazing?
Then we tried it.
Folks...it is that good, and the fact it is less than $15 makes it that much better for me. Consider it racy, lively and perfect for August.
How are they making sparkling wine with essentially the same juice as Bleu Blanc Thau?
When you ferment grape juice into wine, you get carbon dioxide. With most wines, you let the CO2 drift up into the air. With sparkling wine, you just keep the container of fermenting grapes sealed and you bottle the wine with the bubbles in it as well. It can be more complicated, of course, but that’s roughly how it goes down.
Let me add one more thing - I think we complained too much about the hot weather and mother nature swung us hard in the other direction. So now we are pleading with her to bring back the sunny days, so I can open a bottle of this on the back patio and soak in the sun.
Don't fret though...I'm opening a bottle tonight, even though it is cloudy...it's too good not to!
Happy Wednesday All!

SEE VOTING RESULTS: HERE
Today, and honestly the rest of the week, is going to be bonkers.
We are here to report that after a mad dash that saw over 800 six packs get gobbled up in January, another 900 six packs in one week in April (sending this wine out of stock both times), our Silver Oak Blind winner has returned...and is ready to rock.
Just based on back orders for people waiting for this to come back in stock, it may be a record Tuesday. One of our team members even e-mailed the whole company last night and said:
What sent this wine into overdrive?
Our blind tastings always seem to produce some upsets, but honestly this one may take the cake.
Highland Falls, one of our best selling wines of all time, won the Caymus Blind Tasting last fall.
A surprise? Sure. But the wine is a known entity. It sells like hotcakes. I could see it winning in the right conditions.
The Silver Oak Blind Tasting?
In this particular case we had a wine that was the last wine we added to the lineup, a virtual unknown, and a wine we have featured in our newsletter just ONE TIME in our 19 year history, that took home the crown.
I'm sorry, what?
I was so worried that nobody would believe us, that we just decided to include the voting results. You can view them here.
581 of you came in January to test your blind tasting chops across 8 wines - and 25% of you voted Seigneur de Feu in first place. Besting Silver Oak by 14 votes.
These two wines, a $10 wine and an $80 wine, took home 47% of ALL the first place votes.
Just wild...
What is even more insane, is that in the one e-mail we have sent about this wine (and I just read this and it kinda gave me chills), I told you - as kind of a joke - that Seigneur du Feu was basically like Silver Oak but only for $10 because of the use of American Oak in the wine. 👀
Here is what we told you:
"Throughout the last two centuries of winedom, French wine has been aged in French oak. Or has it? In the 19th century, French forests, planted for warships, were plentiful enough for barrels too. In the early 20th century, barrels made from Eastern European oak became more common, especially after WWI decimated French forests. But they were replanted with purpose; the barrel industry returned and has dominated the idea of top flight wine ever since. Yet, American oak is crucial to many other wine regions: Spain, Australia, the U.S., maybe even Silver Oak (they love that vanilla smell). So this is a southern French Cab with American oak’s lashing of coconut and sawdust – the classic aromas of American oak barrels.
Maybe think Silver Oak from France, but only costs $9.99? There may be some hyperbole in there, but you get the idea! 😂"
Have we just uncovered the next big thing?
I have no idea.
But this is so damn exciting I barely know what to say.
Welcome back (again) Seigneur du Feu!!!
1,000 six packs came into NC - you think they all will go out this week?

I believe we are officially in the "dog days" of summer.
Not only did the Romans coin the phrase "days of the dog star" or "dog days", they also knew that one of the most important weapons against the heat was a nice glass of pink wine.
So in order to try and combat the heat...and celebrate our best selling rosé...and cheer on how wineries like this are still churning out $9.99 hits in a world of $12 Starbucks drinks - we're putting Larme en Rose on sale through Sunday!
Why is the wine so special? (Aside from the fact that it has sold 8 bajillion bottles since its release in 2018...😂)
Well, if you stick around the wine business long enough, you’ll have seen it all. Where once wine coolers were cooler than Liebfraumilch, now hard seltzer is hot (served cold). White Zin was once de rigeur, though it was never French; it was from the good ol’ US of A. But then that became too sweet and the category died. Or seemed to. Because then rosé rose up like a zombie eager for fresh meat, though the current iteration of the pink stuff is more often French than not. Provence is the epicenter of it and the French have figured out how we like it: dry, pale pink, light and refreshing.
I know what I'm drinking tonight...right when I get home!
Happy Tuesday all!

Our Chapel Hill store is temporarily closed for repairs
Many of you may or may not have heard that central NC near Orange County got over 10 inches of rain on Sunday. Well, that rain flows down towards the ocean and through Chapel Hill and our store at Eastgate Shopping Center (along with the entire center) sustained massive damage.
The most important news: all of our team members are safe. While the damage to the store is significant, we’re counting our blessings — especially in light of the heartbreaking flooding events in Texas.
We’re already working on getting the Chapel Hill location back open as quickly as possible (the progress is awesome!). When we do, you’ll be greeted with a refreshed space — including some brand-new tasting machines we’re excited to share with you.
We’ve been incredibly moved by how many of you have stopped by or reached out asking how you can help. The Chapel Hill community continues to amaze us with your kindness, resilience, and spirit of togetherness.
Online orders for Chapel Hill will hopefully (famous last words) reopen by the end of this week, and we’ll make sure they’re delivered right to your door. We’re not quite sure how long the full recovery will take, but we’re in this together — and we’re up for the challenge.
In the interim, if you live in Chapel Hill and want to order some wine - you can order online for Pickup at our Morrisville location and we will bring it right over to you!
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your support and love. We love you right back.
In light of all that, we needed some good news. And there is no better news than keeping Bleu Blanc Thau on sale from our July 4th sale through the end of this week.
It's our #1 white wine for a reason.
Many of you know it as the blue top wine, the wine with fish on the label, BBT, or many other names we've heard it called - but one thing is for certain...people are calling for it every day!
What's up with the wine?
We found the Vivarés brothers from Cotes de Thau – you’ve probably not heard of it but it’s the hilly coastal part of Languedoc in Mediterranean France. They live in Pézenas, which you should visit someday because it’s the charming birthplace of France’s greatest playwright, Molière. Robert Vivarés has a B&B with a fine restaurant and Paul travels the world for his business tasting a lot of wines. They needed a house wine that reflected the place where they grew up. So they blended Picpoul and Terret Blanc from the hills around them and called it Bleu Blanc and its straight up silly value.
Let's do this!!

July 4th weekend I am all about the summer things...beaches, lakes, fireworks, pools, boats and rosé...
And there is one wine that meets all those criteria, and it is on sale for only $7.99 per bottle.
I am glad there are wines like SWIMBAD in the world. I can basically get two bottles of delicious rose, that will float in the ocean with me while I try to keep cool, all for apparently less than a sandwich at Jersey Mike's.
What do we know about SWIMBAD Rosé?
- The wine is delicious, and at this price point, it is right in my budget sweet spot.
- The PET bottle is perfect for all things summertime. It can't break (I literally tested it and threw one across the parking lot - and yes some people gave me a look 😳), and it fits perfectly in a cooler for the beach, lake or right by the pool.
- It also fits well in beach bags, swimsuit pockets, and in a koozie (yeah, I tried it...you never know, right?)
I think this online review kinda sums up my feelings perfectly:
I'm chilling one for late this afternoon, turning up this song, and cruising into the evening!
Side note - that song has to be top 3 of all time!
Happy July 4th!

July 4th Specials!
*Please note our stores will be closed on July 4th, 2025 - but the sale prices will all be active on our website throughout the day on July 4th.*
*Curbside Pickup Always Available*
We've been talking a lot about value, and how much things are costing lately - and I'm here to tell you this is one of the greatest lineups of value we have ever been able to offer!
Way back in 2020 (which feels like 100 years ago and yesterday all at the same time!), with the 4th falling on a Saturday, we wanted to make sure those of you who celebrated the week before the 4th and the week after the 4th could get in on the action. So what did that mean? Running the sale for almost two weeks, of course :)
Since then we have stuck to that pattern, and we can't get enough of it!
That means you get to purchase wine at silly prices for 14 days AND you get to celebrate the 4th for a couple of weeks! You have our permission. Some of you may wish to celebrate the whole summer, and we are on board with that plan 😁
Quick note - ALL of these sale items are offered to you at the lowest online prices in the USA. Boom! (that was a big firework going off, just fyi)
So Happy Birthday America! And of course, THANK YOU ALL for the opportunity to serve you. We are humbled by your support and we strive to earn your business each and every day.
Let's do this people!
2024 Balcon Sur La Mer Rosé
Release Price: $20.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net)
SAVE 50%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Balcon delivers everything you want in a great rosé in spades. This unctuous pink wine is dry, stony, fruity, lengthy. Comprised of Grenache, Grenache Gris and Mourvedre, there’s a lot more here than many a rosé that you’ve tasted before.
2024 SWIMBAD Rosé
Release Price: $15.00
SALE Price: $7.99 (net)
SAVE 47%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Rosé is the tipple of the tempting whether we are in Touraine, Tempe, Tuscaloosa, Tuscany or Saint-Tropez. Provence, the archetypal French vacationland, is the poster child for what modern rosé ought to be. Pale, quenching, lip-smacking.
2024 Dosoris Lane Rosé
Release Price: $20.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net)
SAVE 50%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
The south of France has been home to a sea of vines for centuries, though its heyday was the late 19th century after the newly built railroad allowed shipments to fill the carafes of Parisian cafes. Cotes de Thau is gaining notoriety for its rosé wines grown beneath the former volcano of Agde, with a mix of garrigue, sand, nearby sea and lagoons. This is a blend of Cinsault and Merlot made in a crisp, clean, even racy style of pink wine.
2023 Domaine Lerys Tradition
Release Price: $20.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net)
SAVE 50%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
The family estate Domaine Lérys was founded in 1861 in Villeneuve les Corbières, with vineyards planted on steep schist soils, not such a different landscape from what you find in Spain’s Priorat. The Rhone grapes like Carignan, Grenache and Syrah grown in Fitou are more generous than they are burly. Their Tradition bottling combines 60% Carignan (tangy and almost cranberry like) with dense and deep Grenache.
2023 Sonoma Cutrer Russian River Ranches Chardonnay
Winery Price: $28.00
SALE PRICE: $16.98 (net) per bottle
SAVE 40%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
It's Sonoma Cutrer - what more do we really need to say? Oak, Vanilla, butter - all that you expect from a great California Chard and then a little extra thrown in for good measure...
2024 Histoire de Grains Marselan
Release Price: $20.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net) per bottle
SAVE 50%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Throughout the expansive Roussillon-Languedoc are some of the more adventurous French grapes with which you might not be familiar – Marselan is at the top of the heap. It’s a crossing of Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache and in the last quarter century is being looked to as one of the grapes that might save France from climate change. Will it? Who knows. But it certainly is interesting stuff: a bit lighter than Cabernet Sauvignon but with some of its strengths and backbone. Bordeaux has just recently chosen it as a newly approved grape there; they see its character and future importance as well.
2024 Dosoris Lane Proprietary Red
Release Price: $20.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net)
SAVE 50%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Maybe one of the most hyped up wines this year, Dosoris Lane is all about showing what type of crazy quality you can produce for under $15. Think black pepper notes from a little Syrah. The black fruits in the middle suggest a little bit of Cabernet; the red fruits and white pepper hint at Grenache. Put it all together and you have some epic red wine from the sunny south of France, with expansive and bright flavors.
2021 Z/N Zinfandel
Release Price: $20.00
SALE Price: $7.99 (net)
SAVE 60%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
I know, I know, Zinfandel is the same grape as Italy’s Primitivo. But is it? Even the best Primitivo doesn’t have the fruitiness, the power, the sheer intensity of California’s best Zins. And how do we describe that fruitiness? I always find that it has something like more red fruits than black fruits, with a little hint of red currant jelly right at the end that is part of the easy friendliness of the grape.
2024 La Petite Gargotte Blanc
Release Price: $14.99
SALE Price: $7.99 (net) per bottle
SAVE 47%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
The Comte Tolosan region encompasses famed wine regions: Jurancon, Cahors and Armagnac. Typically, the white wines are based upon neutral grapes like Ugni Blanc, Colombard, and Folle Blanche, or more aromatic grapes like Petit Manseng or Gros Manseng. While few of these grapes have distinctive personalities, if you put them into a harmonious blend, they can be pretty charming.
2023 P/N Pinot Noir
Release Price: $25.00
SALE Price: $12.99 (net)
SAVE 48%
Lowest Online Price in the US!
Put together a bunch of passionate kids (some with backgrounds selling wines for legends such as Eric Solomon and Martine Saunier) deeply immersed in the California biz and you can find some pretty tasty wines. That's what they did and that's what we have here.
2023 Les Peyrautins Pinot Noir
Release Price: $20.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net)
SAVE 50%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
You have been told that Pinot Noir is the most finicky of grapes; indeed, it’s supposed to be the “heartbreak grape.” The statement is not false but it’s also not completely true. To make great Pinot Noir is bloody difficult and to do it consistently is virtually impossible, unless you’re in some famous place. But that’s true of most grapes. It’s true that Pinot Noir grown in the wrong place is pretty dreadful, maybe more dreadful than most other grapes. But the middle ground has plenty of wealth to it – you need a friendly place for grape growing but not too friendly. With France’s Pays d’Oc, there are places where it’s easy to ripen grapes and areas that offer just enough challenge to coax Pinot Noir into showing its friendly and compelling side. This is an ideal example.
2023 Bodegas Lo Nuevo "Corasado"
Release Price: $25.00
SALE Price: $12.99 (net)
SAVE 48%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Bodegas Lo Nuevo has unquestionably modernized their winery; it’s practically a technical marvel now. But what makes these wines special is the place, Jumilla, with its intense weather. It’s tough ground for most grapes, but Monastrell (the French, who borrowed it from Spain, call it Mourvedre) and Cariñena (once again, a borrowed grape dubbed Carignan by the French) can thrive here.
2020 Bonterra "The Roost" Chardonnay
Release Price: $50.00
SALE Price: $21.75 (net)
SAVE 56%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Bonterra is as close to an OG among the wineries devoted to sustainability and true regenerative viticulture as any among American wineries. This single vineyard wine comes from a spot nestled between the shore of the upper Russian River and a blue heron nesting site and preserve; hence the name of Blue Heron Ranch. It’s Biodynamically farmed, and shows the sort of tangy cut that’s typical of Mendocino Chardonnay.
2023 Sombrero Cabernet
Release Price: $20.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net) per bottle
SAVE 50%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Over four generations of winemaking, the Vellas family have slowly assembled a strong group of properties in Languedoc and Roussillon. In beautiful sites like Mas du Pont they have created not only a vast set of vineyards but also farmlands, bull breeding, equestrian centers, olive groves and more. With Cabernet spread out across these sunny and Mediterranean climes, ripeness and aromatics are both in strong supply.
2023 The Palace Thief #2
Release Price: $78.00
SALE Price: $29.99 (net)
SAVE 62%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Most of the Napa OGs have been bought out or at least changed hands numerous times. The winery behind Palace Thief Napa, starting in 1969, has remained owned and run by the same family. Now, it’s a third-generation project but the critical piece, the vineyards, is really what has allowed this family to achieve such demonstrated excellence. The Cabs are firm, powerful and very classically Napa-esque.
2023 Maison Belliac Chardonnay
Release Price: $25.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net)
SAVE 60%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
When the French decided to build the Canal du Midi, they unsurprisingly chose a portion of the Pays d’Oc that is flatter and less mountainous than much of the regional landscape. The climate is different, needless to say, but not so very different from sunny California, and the wine has some of that same buttery character that West Coast Chardonnay exemplifies.
2023 Vellas Sauvignon Blanc
Release Price: $19.99
SALE Price: $12.99 (net) per bottle
SAVE 35%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
To most, the Languedoc is a large scale region with small scale ambitions. Even more importantly, there are ancient vineyards in the Languedoc that didn't get grubbed up and replaced with newer, sexier clones. Older vines have survived, and in the best spots, the climate is conducive to long life, and those vines that have provided the grapes for this wine have long been grown organically.
2022 Darley Proprietary Red
Release Price: $45.00
SALE Price: $14.99 (net)
SAVE 67%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
We argue about vintages and that’s because we don’t all like the same style of wines. You may hate Napa Cabernet in 2011 because you think they're weak and insipid; I might find them elegant and sleek. You might champion Napa Cab 2013s; most people do. I might complain that some are too ripe. But 2020 is one of those vintages that makes fans of us all. Sonoma Cabernet in 2020 has richness but also balance. Check out Darley’s 2020 Knights Valley Cab and make your own mind up.
2023 Bleu Blanc Thau
Release Price: $14.99
SALE Price: $7.99 (net)
SAVE 47%

This blend of Picpoul and Terret is so tasty, so refreshingly crisp (but still weighty enough to matter) and, dare we say it, a freaking value that practically crawled into our bag and said take me home the first time we tasted it.
2023 Guillemain Reuilly Pinot Gris
Release Price: $30.00
SALE Price: $17.99 (net)
SAVE 40%

We first tasted the Guillemain Pinot Gris back in February 2023 at one of the worlds largest wine trade shows. It was an absolute show stopper, the price was beyond right, and the packaging was insane (I love wax on a bottle that costs less than $20!).

Spanish wine is a bargain, right? It’s been that way for decades, though it’s only been in the last ten or fifteen years that the wider world has dropped some in their gullets and said, wait, this costs how much? Certainly, less than it should. It doesn't take geniuses to notice it, so we’re not making any claims to our own brilliance. In the case of this Garnacha Tintorera, we’re pretty sure we’ve found what may be the best sub $20 wine we have ever tasted. Spain has done it again!

Don’t hate Moscato Spumante because it’s dolce (“sweet” in Italian and everything sounds better in Italian). Just picture yourself on a Vespa, driving through Roma, winking at everyone and saying “dolce!” like you’re in a Fellini movie. La Dolce Vita!

After killing it with the AVERÆN project in Oregon, the Banshee gang is hard at work again in France. They’ve grabbed some vineyards in Gascony and we’re smart enough to snag some of their early efforts. There’s not a lot of Sauvignon Blanc grown in these spots, but what is there produces wines like this one: poised, more bright melon and citrus - just the way it should be.
2023 Kingstree Chardonnay

Do you want big? I said, DO YOU WANT BIG? Cuz that is what Kingstree is all about. The Chardonnays are unctuous, lush, and just plain big. Bring the thunder!
2023 Dosoris Lane Blanc
Release Price: $15.00
SALE Price: $9.99 (net)
SAVE 33%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Sometimes you just have to embrace the mystery of wine; truth be told, we don’t know which grapes are in this wine. They wouldn’t tell us, but we didn’t care after we tasted it. Neither merely crisp or full and rich; the wine straddles a really nice place that is refreshing and patio-perfect, but that has some weight and character to handle rich fish or even grilled chicken.
2022 Pocapita Rioja
Release Price: $15.00
SALE Price: $7.99 (net)
SAVE 46%
Lowest Online Price in the USA!
Pocapita is a great example of how much the Rioja region has upped its game in the last decade. Like many of their wines of late, this 100% Tempranillo is rich, powerful, intense, heady and every bit a modern version of concentrated Rioja, but one that nevertheless still tastes like Rioja.

Over the last year, many of you have come to learn what we found out in winter of 2022 - Antoine Lafarge is putting out some of the highest quality / affordable white wine in the Loire Valley (dare I say maybe on planet earth?).
While his portfolio contains an embarrassment of riches, his entry level offering "L'Enfant Rebelle" may be the star of the show.
Why, do you ask?
Well, the European AOC system delineates the boundaries of any winegrowing region; the idea is that the best and appropriate area is reserved for the AOCs. That means that there are other places that can make high quality wine but simply don’t fit within the AOC boundaries. That includes this site just outside of the established Loire Valley vineyards where delicious Sauvignon Blanc can be made, similarly to Sancerre and Pouilly Fumé, but not at similar prices to those better-known wines.
That's what we have here, and good golly is it something else. Oh, did we mention it is the lowest price in the United States as well? Heck, you could pay almost 17 pounds in the UK for this (thats basically $22.97 US - click HERE for the offering), or you could just grab it at your neighborhood winestore. for $9.99 😁
But don't take our word for it.
I got this text exchange from a friend the first week this wine landed (which also included the photo we used in this newsletter!). The "he" referenced below is our Store VP in Charlotte:
So ignore at your peril!
I know what I'm drinking tonight!

SALE ITEMS THIS WEEK:
$9.99 for Sparkling Rose? Can it be true?!?!
We don’t just stock vintages and vineyards here at winestore.; we hunt for any beverage that helps our customers relax and reconnect. Our latest find does exactly that — and there isn’t a grape in sight.
Highland Falls’ Delta‑9 THC beverages have converted even our most skeptical tasters, and you all proved the appeal: 650+ four‑packs flew out the door over Memorial Day Weekend. 👀
I was suspect of this market for a long time, but after trying this lineup, we've gone all in.
Why we were hesitant?
Packaging: Too many THC drinks look half baked on the shelf (no pun intended - ok maybe a little pun intended)
Dosage: Many drinks were overloaded (30mg+), which doesn't really scream casual Tuesday night.
Highland Falls fixed both problems with design‑forward cans and session‑friendly servings.
There are 4 flavors to choose from:
Flavor | Profile | Cannabinoids | The Vibe |
---|---|---|---|
Highland Harmony | Zero‑proof margarita—bright natural citrus with a kiss of sugar | 2.5 mg THC / 2.5 mg CBG | Smooth, mellow relaxation |
Back Porch Bliss | Classic lemonade / iced tea with a modern twist | 2.5 mg THC / 2.5 mg CBG | Sunny decks & hammock days |
Highly Likely | Sparkling tonic of pineapple, tangy citrus & blossom | 5 mg THC / 5 mg CBG | Good‑vibe gatherings |
Coastal Calm | Tropical mango meets bright orange | 10 mg THC / 10 mg CBG | Deep relaxation—golden‑hour approved |
All four are gluten‑free, alcohol‑free, and vegan - and low calorie to boot! The Highland Harmony is only 35 calories per can!
My personal favorites are the Back Porch Bliss (I love lemonade and iced tea) and Highly Likely - but I think there is something here for everyone.
I knew we needed to stock them full time when after we brought them in on a trial run my mother in law and mother both ordered mixed cases 👀
So if you're looking for something new to try, we think we've found it!
Happy Wednesday all!

It turns out our #1 sparkling wine producer also makes a sparkling rosé, the quality is off the charts, and the price is so low I had to do a triple take.
Say hello to Corte Giovanni Prosecco Rosé...
Just a few miles south of the beating heart of Prosecco, Valdobbiadene, is the Societa Agricola Colli Asolani di Bedin where Corte Giovanni is made. This third-generation producer was founded in 1948 by Giacomo Bedin where the family has long specialized in Prosecco grown on the gentle slopes of the Colli Asolani hills. This is made from Glera, the classic grape of Prosecco, but a small amount of Pinot Noir is blended in for color and richness.
Sparkling rosé is one of my summertime favorite treats. It's just like the rosé I love on a hot summer day - just bubbly and more fun 😂
As I have opined on many occasions recently, I really love producers that are trying to see how they can stretch the boundaries on what is possible in terms of quality and price (in a good way of course). Mission accomplished on this one.
Delicious, high quality, sparkling rosé for less than $10?
Sign me up twice on Tuesdays and four times on Fridays!
$9.99 through Sunday....let's do this!

Our Best Selling Rosé is BACK and on Sale for $9.99!
The Best Pinot Noir you will drink this year...
Go ahead and mark it down.
This is going to be THE rosé of summer 2025 (based on early sales it also may have been THE rosé of spring 2025 as well 😂)
Isn’t rosé wine one of the clearest harbingers of spring and summer? Sure, rosé is enjoyed year-round now, but as outdoor drinking becomes an actual possibility, the arrival of cool, wet drinks is the true representative of the renewal of life, at least for the wine lover. This blend of Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah hails from the South of France, where outdoor dining and rosé wines are de rigeur, made possible by the bright Mediterranean and its warming winds. You might not be traveling there right now, but a wine like Dosoris Lane can at least put you in mind of calmer times and sunny climes.
I had a glass last night - and immediately I was transported here. Which was great because May has been the longest month ever...am I right?!?!?
So let's keep it short and sweet, shall we?
99.76% chance you won't see me without a bottle of Dosoris Lane in tow this summer - and you guys for sure know what I'm drinking tonight! (and this weekend!)
Bring on the 75 degree and potentially sunny Memorial Day Weekend!
It's the weekend, right?

The 2024 release of our #1 selling rosé of all time arrived in time for the official start of summer - and we are PUMPED UP!
This week is supposed to be BEAUTIFUL across Georgia and the Carolinas (sunny and 75 for the weekend?!?!) so the chance of us opening up multiple bottles of this over the holiday weekend are strong to quite strong.
Why is the wine so special? (Aside from the fact that it has sold 8 bajillion bottles since its release in 2018...😂)
Well, if you stick around the wine business long enough, you’ll have seen it all. Where once wine coolers were cooler than Liebfraumilch, now hard seltzer is hot (served cold). White Zin was once de rigeur, though it was never French; it was from the good ol’ US of A. But then that became too sweet and the category died. Or seemed to. Because then rosé rose up like a zombie eager for fresh meat, though the current iteration of the pink stuff is more often French than not. Provence is the epicenter of it and the French have figured out how we like it: dry, pale pink, light and refreshing.
I know what I'm drinking tonight...right when I get home!
Happy Tuesday all!

Here are things I know...
1) Moms love bubbly on Mother's Day
2) Moms love it when you are thrifty and find amazing bubbles at an amazing price
3) Moms love it when you celebrate them in true celebratory fashion!
So that is why this weekend we've got our all time best selling Champagne ready to roll - and at the lowest price in the US by nearly $15 per bottle!
In a world where all we hear about are prices going up...we are pumped to be able to show you some prices going the other direction 🙌🏻
What's up with Guyot Choppin?
Jean-Nöel Haton makes numerous Champagnes; the Haton house is in the top ten of Champagne producers. But you wouldn’t know about it unless you lived in Champagne or were somehow deeply ensconced in the wine biz. This family has been making Champagne since 1928 and you should probably get in on it before the centennial in a few years when things are bound to get noisier and pricier.
This particular blend of Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier is absolutely delicious - and at $29.99 may represent the greatest Champagne value for sale in the United States right now!
I know what I'm serving Mom this weekend!
Happy Mother's Day!

Most wineries talk about giving their wines a "sense of place", but few places can create value wines like Jumilla, with its very unique and intense weather. The hot summers are bounded by the long, cold winters and its high elevation, providing a shift of as much as a 77 degrees difference between daytime and nighttime temperatures (you read that correctly) and an almost total absence of rainfall, with its vineyards scratching out a spot on dry and stony ground. It’s tough ground for most grapes, but Monastrell (the French, who borrowed it from Spain, call it Mourvedre) can thrive here.
This 100% Monastrell from Bodegas de Nuevo is a great example of the almost preposterously complex drinkability that Jumilla can deliver. Huge fruit, depth, and complexity all balanced together for a price that makes me smile.
In a world of overpriced chinos and $10 cookies, we're thrilled we can still count on two things in this world - thrilling value wines coming out of Jumilla, and McDonalds fountain Diet Coke remaining the greatest of all time.
We'll have the wine on the machine at all 9 stores for you to taste (juuuuuuuuust in case you don't trust us yet) all weekend long.
So let's get to it people! Happy Thursday!

Our #1 selling Bordeaux is BACK...and on SALE for $9.99
I expect things to be a little crazy today, as that is what happens when you take a wine that sells like hotcakes, that some people sell for $25, and put it on sale for $7.99 per bottle.
This is the kind of stuff we dream about as retailers 😁
We waited 17 years before we carried our first white Bordeaux, and I think we may have been missing out on some sales...because the hottest wine in the store right now is...you guessed it...a white Bordeaux.
Grand Billard has run out of inventory at our distributor's warehouse 4 times just since January of last year, so the idea of putting it on sale for $7.99 seems like a crazy idea - but you guys know how we roll!
If you ask any wine expert to name the value wines, they will likely reel off only a few dozen well-known names, and some of them count Grand Billard amongst them. It’s the basic Sauvignon Blanc blend, with mostly used barrels to keep the cost reasonable. This is from the critically raved about 2022 vintage and by all accounts these guys knocked this out of the park.
So if you're a Sauvignon Blanc fan, a white wine fan, or just generally curious how good this stuff had to be to be the first white Bordeaux to make the cut....this is for you!!
I know what I'm drinking tonight!
Let's do this!

Don't Pay $35 - Pay $9.99
Let's run it back! On SALE for $9.99!
Anyone interested in an absolutely insane deal to start the weekend? (Thursday is the start of the weekend, right? 😂)
How about a wine normally only sold at the winery, from one of the icons of US Pinot Noir, at what we believe to be the lowest price ever offered on this wine in the US?
How good is the price on this single vineyard Pinot Noir?
Let's just say Total Wine is selling the entry level estate Pinot Noir bottling from Patricia Green for $37.99 (here) - so there's that...
Patricia Green was a legend in Oregon. Maybe not that many people knew about her outside Oregon, but within the community of Pinot Noir winemakers, Patty was someone you listened to because she knew so much. While she did some great stuff putting Torii Mor on the map, when she opened her own place in 2000, she was free to make even more amazing wines. Okay, there’s a lot of wonderful Pinot in Oregon, but Patty Green rises far above the field.
Patty Green left us too soon in 2017, but her legacy as one of the most gifted winemakers in the world of Oregon Pinot Noir lives on through her business partner Jim Anderson.
I’ve never had a bad Pinot from Patricia Green, but their Anderson Family Vineyard bottling is next level. Up until we were able to cut this deal, I had only even seen a bottle a handful of times.
You can read more about the vineyard here, but let’s just say these people know what they are doing, and they do it better than almost anyone else in Oregon (dare I say, also the United States?).
Extremely limited supply at this price - but let's get while the gettin' is good!
I know what I'm drinking tonight!
