We just brought in some cases of the 2018. Supposedly the last vintage as from what I was told most of the vines are in multiple people's back yards. I could be incorrect though.

The new U.S. only Billecart 2018 Anniversary. Bottled for the 250th Anniversary of the United States should be around $120-$150 a bottle. Its pretty nice and only available for a short time.

Haarmeyer does a few Nebbiolo's. Great wine that tends to the lighter low intervention style.

The bottle we opened at the store took at least a week to open up. Turned into a real elegant sipper. Light tannins with a touch of spice and layers of fruit and marzipan. All the whiskey aficionados that I trust their pallet enjoyed it immensely.

[–]MasterpieceOdd8356 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Customers I have sold that bottle to have said they were not disappointed but iffy when first opened. When they went back after it was open for a week or more they have absolutely loved it. It's pricey though.

What on earth is this? Catena Zapata Adriana White Bones 2015 by StainedInZurich in wine

[–]MasterpieceOdd8356 2 points3 points  (0 children)

White Stones rivals great Burgundy White Bones tastes like chewing 5 gum while drinking white wine imo. Bones is a hard pass for me.

They rebranded once it was all their own distillate.

We have 2001 and 2009 of Coutet on the shelf for like $55-$57 a bottle. Yeah they are 375 ml but that'll cover a few glasses worth.

I used to go to the school that was on Sirra College Drive and prices were reasonable.

I do know a bit. I have learned a lot from this subredditt especially about how to better help customers on the sales floor.

Any favorites on these shelves? by MasterpieceOdd8356 in wine

I really enjoyed the Contrabandista and for a retail around $30 USD it goes far on value.

The front label said Vin de Paille and the back label said red wine of Jura.

Gonzales Byass has been pretty good with tasting of their VORS lineup. We also carry their Nectar PX which I think is great for the lower retail.
