Greetings!

Believe it or not, July is coming to an end. I know a lot of you have been out camping, or hosting bbq’s in your backyard and while those are two of the best parts of Summer, you won’t want to enter into August without attending this Friday’s tasting. We’ve got wines that are made for grilling that are also friendly on your wallet. Read on for more info.

See you soon!

Come see Argentina and Chile battle it out for taste supremecy!

Everyone is looking for value these days and, in wine, value can still be found South of the Equator. Both Argentina and Chile have similar histories in winemaking. Spanish colonists introduced wine grapes to both countries and they both started out making lots and lots of wine. Lots and lots of not very good wine. During the 80′s and early 90′s there grew an interest in producing wine for export. This meant modernizing their facilities and focusing on quality. Their star grapes are different, mainly Malbec in Argentina and Carmenere in Chile, but both countries have turned out to be one of the world’s best source of great, everyday wines. This Friday we’ll let you decide who’s got the better value and quality! It’s going to be a tough one!
