NOW is the time to discover the rich reds of the Rhône.

Enjoy 12 “vintage of a lifetime” reds in one special collection.

Welcome to the southern Rhône – a region of generous, mouthfilling reds. Robert Parker calls them “the most underrated great wines of the world.” The 2007 vintage is set to change that.

Start with the best ...

Châteauneuf-du-Pape is the region’s top village – famed for its rich, complex, hedonistic reds. “Profoundly concentrated, aromatic, flawless, unforgettable,” writes Parker of the 2007s.

And wait until you taste the rest ...

Like Châteauneuf, all are blends of juicy Grenache, spicy Syrah and more. Discover “never better” Côtes du Rhône, voluptuous Cairanne (a village to watch) and the gold-medal gem the locals love.

All in one unrepeatable 12-bottle collection

Made in the same way as top Vintage Champagne. But a fraction of the price.

The winemakers of Limoux put the sparkle into wine nearly a century before their Champagne cousins. Today this southern French town is the insider’s choice for sparkling quality and value.

Laurent Mingaud, left, uses Champagne grapes (Chardonnay and Pinot Noir) and Champagne methods. He even barrel-fermented his Roche Lacour 2005 for extra richness – like only the top houses in Champagne do.

The tell-tale sign of quality is the fine stream of tiny bubbles. Fine oak adds delicious brioche to the rich, creamy texture and lifted apple flavor. A fine Spring apéritif. Will cellar well.
12.5% Vol. Enjoy to 2012.

Do pay for quality. Don’t pay to see Champagne on the label.

You’d pay twice the price in Bordeaux or Napa.

Discover the world-class Malbecs of Argentina. Handmade for steak and under $12 a bottle.

Mighty flavor. Talk about packing a punch. Deep, dark, exploding with ripe black fruit – Malbec is the talk of red wine lovers everywhere. And Argentina’s winemaking paradise is THE place to find it. Fresh snowmelt, endless sunshine, high-altitude slopes, mountain-pure grapes – all combine to make incredible wines.

Magnificent Value. Make no mistake: Reds of this quality and complexity cost twice the price in Bordeaux or Napa. You don’t need to pay for fancy châteaux or big reputations here (yet!) – and today you only need to pay $11.67 a bottle.

Masterful winemakers. We go straight to the best – guys who win trophies for their first-rate Malbecs. Like Thibaut Delmotte, maker of the highest-scoring Malbec in Wine Spectator’s Top 100 (2008 and 2009). Or Opi Sadler, trophy winner in London for Best Malbec of Argentina. You’ll enjoy the work of four renowned Malbec masters.

Made for steak. And with the savings you’ll enjoy on the wine, you’ll have more to spend on the best cut of beef you can find.

Going 'underground' in California.

Coming up with double-gold Cabernet and a $107 savings.

We find you the best deals by getting out on the ground. In this case it meant going underground in Sonoma’s Dry Creek Valley (top Cab spot) … deep into the Fritz family’s subterranean winery.

Looks impressive. Wait until you taste it.

We loved the family’s sumptuous 2006 Cab. So did judges at the San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition, awarding it a rare double gold.

Complex aromas of cherries, cocoa and tobacco. Then layers of blackberry, cassis, coffee, cracked black pepper. So much going on here. Delicious now, will cellar well. 13.7% Vol. Enjoy to 2016.

The Fritz family wants to work with us (and you). So today you save $107.
But you will have to hurry.

There’s nothing fresher or crisper than an ice-cool glass of Pinot Grigio. For the real thing, you need to head to the mountains of northern Italy.

“Italy’s top Pinot Grigios are pure, complex, world-class wines.”
Wine Spectator

At a top cellar outside Venice, Alessandro Gallici (above) selects premium Friuli DOC fruit for his breathtakingly pure Vina Baccana.

Alessandro wants you to enjoy his 2009 at its fresh best (with $49 savings). Molto grazie!
