UPDATE #6 - WINES OF PORTUGAL SPECIAL
Updated May 14, 2026
Over the first half century of my sixty years as a wine merchant,
I listened to customers returning from trips to
Portugal ecstatic over the quality and value of its wines.
There was nothing I could do to help them on this side of the pond.
Virtually the only Portuguese table wines in the market were
Lancers and Mateus rose, plus a Mateus related Vinho Verde and Dao tinto.
Times have sure changed over the last decade.
I now have at my disposal dozens of worthy
(and priceworthy!)
Portuguese table wines.
Time to put them in the spotlight.
And not just for a two-week period.
Like our 2022 Bordeaux sale, this
Wines of Portugal feature continues to evolve.
We've added many new vintages and wines to the
feature over the last few months.
Sale is ongoing with regular updates

UPDATE #11 - 2022 BORDEAUX SPECIAL
Updated May 14, 2026
The highly rated 2022 Bordeaux wines
are continuing to arrive in our market.
We continue this ongoing feature with
another batch of new & old selections
of the best newly available.
A lot has happened since our last 2022 Bordeaux update last fall.
Following a period of tariff level uncertainty last spring,
tariffs definitely have had an impact on
Euro wine costs over the rest of 2025.
Sellers and buyers alike have tried to temper this,
but most prices have gone up commensurately
--some more, some less, and some not at all--
depending on supply-and-demand factors and the
value of the dollar versus the Euro.
Thanks to savvy buying,
a few prices have gone DOWN.
All in all, the 2022 Bordeaux
retain high price-quality relationships.

** CHATEAU D'YQUEM BEST OF THE BEST **
Posted March 29, 2026
'Great wines are not born just anywhere.
A unique set of climatic and geological conditions
combine to form a rare equilibrium.
This is undoubtedly the case at Yquem,
which epitomizes all that is best about
the singular winegrowing environment in Sauternes.
The one and only Bordeaux to be ranked
1er cru SUPERIEUR in 1855.
The magical and fragile microclimate gives birth to this
exceptional wine which reveals its
elegance and complexity during the tasting.'
