Pre-Thanksgiving Grab Bag

We have a lot of information to share with you, so we'll dispense with the usual preamble and get right to it.

Holiday Store Hours and Information

Leading up to Thanksgiving, both of our stores will have the following extended hours:

New Products

Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame 2004. Simply one of the world's great Champagne's; a few bottles of La Grande Dame is now available in a beautiful wooden gift box.

The Champagne itself? There is plenty of effervescence. The fine, light bead swirls up slowly and gracefully. The first nose reveals a definite mineral base, with noble fruit and remarkable intensity.

On the palate, there is plenty of body and substance. The texture is crisp and silky. The chalky
Mountains not included
mineral note resonates magnificently with this full-bodied structure and intensifies the lengthy persistence. The finish is fresh and generous, indicating a light dosage that does nothing to disturb the
wine's natural balance.

Cavit Pinot Gift Set. Cavit Pinot Grigio is the #1 Italian wine in the US. With a balanced character, bright straw gold color, appealing aroma and fruit flavors, it's no wonder Cavit is America's favorite Pinot Grigio. Cavit Pinot Noir is delicious and balanced, with bright cherry notes, hints of red berries, and a soft character. Cavit is the #1 Imported Pinot Noir in America.

$14.99 in the Bottle Club®.

We will have a variety of gift sets and holiday packs available, while supplies last. Some of these products, like the La Grande Dame above, are available in extremely limited quantities. Shop early for the best selection.

Ripped from the Headlines

The Wine Spectator Top 100. They've revealed 2 through 10 so far, with #1 coming up later today. The full list will be posted on Monday. Once it's published, a list of what Top 100 wines we have will be available in the stores. If you don't follow the Top 100 closely, there are a few important things to know:
1. The list covers wines they've tasted throughout the year. Often, a wine is sold out long before the list is published.
2. Not every wine is/was available in New Jersey.
3. Like any rating system, the list is subjective.

Survey Says. A few weeks ago, we sent a survey to everyone in our Bottle Club®. A number of issues were raised in the responses we received, and we addressed some of them in a Q&A format. Click here for Part 1, and click here for Part 2 of this Q&A.

Have a great weekend!
