You may be unfamiliar with us; we are a one-of-a-kind local wine shop in the heart of Warren. If you want to know what makes us so special and unique, read on… When you walk into our store you will find Tara, our store manager, wine buyer, and wine expert with 30 yrs. experience in the wine industry. She loves the challenge of finding awe-inspiring wines at awe-inspiring prices. You’ll findmany of our wines are highly rated, 90+ points byWine Spectator, Wine Advocate, andWine Enthusiast. Many are organic, single vineyards, and from exceptional family-run wineries from around the world. On top of that, at any given point you will find 800 to 1400 different wines from every major wine-producing country. Some aren’t widely known NOT because they’re “inferior” or “cheap” but because only a small number of all wines produced have the opportunity to be rated or have huge marketing dollars behind them. If you’d like to sample before buying, stop in on a Friday night tasting from 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm. Last but not least, we offer private in store tastings, corporate tasting events and party planning assistance. Feel free to call or stop in with any questions or to book an event. The takeaway: 10 Below is not “just cheap wine”… It is quality wine retailing as high as $24 per bottle with the average price being $15 to $17, and on sale for $10.97 or less. Another sweet takeaway: Join our Wine Club! Receive 15% off mix and match case every Saturday. By Tara Arnold, Store Manager Here we have a store favorite, a 90pt Robert Parker organic rare red blend, 70% Monastrell, 30% Garnacha. You may be familiar with Monastrell as "Mourvedre" from France, but it's more affordable from Spain and well worth trying. This style is typified by Australian Shiraz, Sonoma Zinfandel, and Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Casa Los Frailes Vineyards has an interesting history dating back 300 years and is still owned by the same family since 1771. Today it's a 408 acre organic estate in Valencia, Spain where house, cellar, vineyards, Mediterranean forest, olive and almond trees, sheep and bees form a living farm organism. They’ve been certified organic since 2002. Tasting Notes: Deep, intense, fruit driven, filled with ripe fruit and spices. Characteristics: Pepper, spice, raspberry, plum and leather Regular Price $15.99 Sale Price $10.97 Los Frailes Red Blend (Valencia, Spain) 2018
