Tempting wine purchases you’ve passed on—give others a shot

Thanks. Have you guys had good luck with them? Reviews online certainly seem less than ideal.

not usually anything of interest on Reverse Wine Snob but today they’ve got a 4-pack of Robert Weil Spatlesen that comes down to like 17 bucks a bottle:

Thanks! In for a pack for dad.

Only two left after I grabbed some (thankfully, I know a guy locally) and only for local Indianapolis-area pickup, but I thought this was delicious when I had it at a restaurant last spring and happily bought two thereafter at $42. At $19.99 it’s a steal.

Envoyer has 2020 Charvin for $45 (if you buy three). I bought only one to keep a vertical going.

Envoyer also has Vilmart GC for $55.

Tell your guy that there’s an Indianapolis offline group slowly getting off the ground.

Kingston still has a bunch of 2022 Falkenstein left. No more Gisela but they have some Palm, Onkel Peter, etc.

He’s not much of a wino, sadly, but I’ll keep working on that.

LastBubbles had it for $48 with free shipping on 3 bottles, instant no brainer

If you are talking about the recent offer, that was the Grand Reserve. Grand Cellier is better and more expensive. Both good wines but I feel that most agree the GC is worth the relatively modest price bump.

What @Michae1_P0wers said. IMO, the GC is the workhorse. Terrific QPR year after year.

I stand corrected, my mind read Vilmart Grand Cru.

I just happened to remember that offer because I did a double take to see if it was GR or GC they were offering.

Envoyer just sent an email with a bunch of 2001 Germans including these two beauties. I’d be all over it, but I already have cases. Unfortunately no Spat offered, which is what I really need…

2001 Joh. Jos. Prüm Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese $89.99 x12
2001 Joh. Jos. Prüm Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel $99.99 x6

2014 Meyney for $13.99

No experience w/ this retailer, but if I were in the North Tahoe/Reno area, I would be tempted to swing by for a case. I thought it was tremendous value when I paid $35.

Wow! I’ll swing by there tomorrow and check this out. Thanks
