Re: wine importers you trust
[ QUOTE ]
what is your general price range? I work for one of the biggest wine and spirits stores in the chicagoland and midwest region(my store alone does $10-12m a year in business and the chain does in excess of $150m a year), so i've been able to recently have a bunch of stuff at the lower price points( I really do need to note though that I am awful when it comes to california as I don't drink all that much cali wine and generally prefer french and italian wines with australia and oregon being my next best areas, so when it comes to cali cabs, I generally favor the more backwards and long lived ones like monte bello, togni, and montelena estate) [/ QUOTE ] Is that Binny's? Thanks for a good thread for those of us getting into wine in Chicago; any tips on relatively good value places to try lots of wine are appreciated. I myself am a fan of Burgundy and Pacific Northwest Pinot... and I recently had the pleasure of trying an '04 Vigne de L'Enfant Jesus from Bouchard Pere-et-Fils. On the fruity side, just amazingly delicious and smooth for about $55 if I recall correctly. |
