What’s going on fellow Berserkers?
Dipping my hand back in retail with a store called the Greene Grape. They are on Liberty Street downtown in the Financial District of Manhattan. I am not buying for them as an “official” buyer, instead going with a garagiste style e-mail offer 2-3 times a week of wines I find. The wines will be typical Lyle fare, Loire, Beaujolais, German Riesling +, Austria, interesting California/WA, org/bio/natural, value-burgs, off the beaten track, small production. The whole deal. The e-mails are kind of like a hypothetical blend of Crush, Garagiste, Chambers Street and my own unique spin. Educational, interesting and if you don’t buy, will always be an entertaining read.
You cannot actually sign up for the e-mail list on the website as the website needs some work.
You’ll have to PM me and I’ll add you. Or e-mail me at lwfass@gmail.com
Eventually I’ll do exclusive Berserker specials at silly prices, but only for you guys, as the rules say.
I sent out the first offer today on the 2008 Knebel von den Terrasen Riesling Trocken from the Lower Mosel. I can also forward that e-mail if you would like.
Here is a link to the website . . .but this has no relation to what I am selling. My wines will be special offers and the guys at the Greene Grape are essentially fulfilling my orders. There will be single bottle, 6-bottle and 12 bottle prices for the e-mails.
So I hope some of you sign up as I’ll be tasting and getting some interesting stuff like I used to do.
