To all Best Winers, It is easy to be enchanted by the beautiful, stylish proprietor of Haut Bergey, la belle Helene Garcin.  When tasting with her we’re constantly wondering if the wines really are that good or is part of it the company we’re keeping. Then, year after year, the scores come. Big scores.  It […]

To all Best Winers, More mind-blowing Riesling. More insane prices. The two estates we’re highlighting today need almost no introduction. The Karthäuserhof Estate is truly unique. From its one-of-a-kind banded label to the fact that all of their fruit comes from one solely-owned estate vineyard, Karthäuserhof is not your typical German winery. Their Eitelsbacher Karthäuserhofberg […]

To all Best Winers, Best Wines isn’t usually what you would call one of those ‘closeout’ websites. We simply look for the Best, coolest wines at the Best possible prices. Which means that when a closeout deal on a serious bottle of wine does come along…it certainly fits within those above-mentioned parameters. This is a […]

To all Best Winers, What does a Swedish guy have to do with one of the great ‘insider’ premium Burgundy buys of the year? Plenty. Johan Bjorklund’s story is a good one. Björklund trained as a chef in his hometown of Stockholm and went to Paris in 1980 to cook for the Swedish ambassador. A […]

To all Best Winers, This is refreshing! But not like ‘mountain spring’ refreshing, I’m talking more about the price of this ‘sick’ bargain red from Joey Tensley. Joey seems to have his head screwed on straight. I get the feeling the man is actually a consumer of fine wine from around the world because his […]

To all Best Winers, Today we’re offering the Romanee Conti of Germany. The Williams-Selyem of Germany. How’s that for esoteric? Some explaining. Weingut Meyer-Näkel is the greatest producer of Pinot Noir in Germany. How’s that?  In 2004, owner/proprietor Werner Näkel was chosen Winemaker of the Year by the famous French restaurant guide, Gault-Millau.  In 2008 […]

To all Best Winers, There’s some outstanding values among the 2010 Bordeaux if you know where to look. But you have to want to look. And you have to want to look hard. I’m right there with you. I know 2010 is not a ‘value’ vintage. It is an outstanding vintage, certainly one of the […]

To all Best Winers, I love La Ginestraia’s Pigato. And it loves me. It goes everywhere with me. With seafood, with Asian cuisines, with lighter pasta dishes, with cured meats. I was hoping they would make it so I could fit a bottle on the end of my keychain but the winery hasn’t returned any […]

To all Best Winers, Holy 1940’s, Batman! These wines are so unique, so hot, so cool, so unbelievable, there is no possible way you can ignore them. Best Wines is offering, on Pre-Arrival now, two of the greatest dessert wines ever made. And they’re over 60 years old. And they’re spectacular.  And they’re 100 and […]

To all Best Winers, “Clinet has been on a hot streak lately and the 2009 appears to be the greatest wine ever made at the estate, surpassing even the late Jean-Michel Arcaute’s monumental 1989. 100 points.” – Robert Parker Hmm, have you ever imagined what the barrels that didn’t make the cut from one of […]
