Hello
Are there any other type of companies operating like De Negoce or CH anyone would recommend?
Not at the scale

I’ve been pretty impressed with the wines from Claudine. Some of the NDA wines from Wine Access are pretty solid. Watch the Board for tips on the occasional hits from Trader Joe’s and Kirkland.

+1 on Claudine. Not advertised as screaming deals (like DeNegoce) but I’ve liked everything I’ve tried.

Yes I noticed their deals don’t look as good as DN and not rated any better. According to Vivino. Not that their ratings are always accurate.
Honestly, id just follow along here or use the search bar around ‘QPR’ type terms. One can do much better than the majority of de Negoce wines if you’re open to putting in the effort and spending just a little bit more money

Claudine, but they have been quiet of late. Everything they offer is first class.

At the risk of being pedantic, you can’t look at price alone. Ratings can be helpful, for sure, but these type of labels don’t make their own wines, so every bottling is going to be quite different. The last Claudine Napa Cabernet I had, for example, probably cost me $35-40, and would rate as well as many $100+ comparators

I will definitely give them a try.
