Dear Friends,

This morning I have a quandary.

In my left hand, I hold one of the top Chateauneuf-du-Pape examples from one of the finest vintages of the last 30.

In my right hand, I hold the ability (however scant) to help so many friends, Email List members and colleagues up and down the Eastern Seaboard – many still searching for a direction forward in the aftermath of nature’s deluge.

The only thing to do?

Combine both.

100% of the proceeds from today’s offer will be donated to the regional Red Cross in charge of the Northeast/Mid-Atlantic corridor.

I want to be clear – 100% of the proceeds, not just the profit:

Tanzer’s IWC (Josh Raynolds): “Dark red.  Ripe, deeply pitched cherry and black raspberry on the fragrant nose.  Then brighter on the palate, with sappy raspberry and bitter cherry flavors picking up spiciness and smokiness with air.  Closes sweet and impressively long, leaving notes of allspice and licorice behind. 92-94pts”

Please purchase what you can – it’s certainly for a good cause and you will come away with one of the top “value” priced examples of a vintage that this taster cannot get enough of.

Be safe – be well.
