The major wine critics use 100 point scale as a quick benchmark for the wines they review. This is a handy reference point to use when purchasing wine.
We’ve had some outstanding vintages from all over the world recently. This has helped create a large number of wines that are rated 90 points or more by many of these prestigious wine publications. A numerical rating of this caliber generally means the wine is excellent. Hurry though, as many of the items listed below are available in very small quantities.

No other single individual has done more to promote the introduction to the USA of high quality wine from small Italian estates over the past 20 years than his man, Leonardo LoCascio. What was his training for such a life’s achievement? Did he study at a university in oenology? Was he born on an Italian wine-making estate and learn his craft from his father during the formative years of his life? No. His last position before embarking on importing Italian wine was as a banker!
In 1980, Mr. Locascio left a successful career in corporate finance to become a wine entrepreneur, giving up a position as a vice president at Citibank-a position he attained at the age 30-to launch Winebow. For 25 years now, he has been selecting wines for his portfolio with the same care he once brought to banking. Along the way he has earned a reputation for uncovering the best wines in Italy, often looking beyond the obvious wine regions of Tuscany, Piedmont and the Veneto to discover hidden gems worthy of importation. He is especially proud to having introduced Americans to the great wines of Italy’s southern regions.
Today, Winebow’s Leonardo LoCascio Selection with it’s over 75 prized Italian producers is widely consider the most impressive Italian portfolio of any importers in the USA. Indeed, the Leonardo LoCascio Selection logo on a label has become the seal of approval for Italian wine enthusiasts.-Robert Parker
Considerable recognition has been give to Leonardo LoCascio’s interesting and vast portfolio by noted wine magazines:
Wine Advocate:-“One of the influential wine personalities of the last 20 years.”
Wine Enthusiast:-2009 Importer of the Year:-“From humble New Jersey beginnings, Winebow has become a leader among importers and distributor of fine wines and spirits from around the world.”

Green’s has provided relief for the post-holiday “credit card blues” with our “Great Values for $10 or Less” selection for the past 15 years. We know how it important it is, particularly in today’s economic climate, to stretch every dollar. The trick is to sort through the mediocre, and yes down right bad wines, to find those diamonds in the rough that are, for whatever reason, under priced.
The Green’s tasting team spent the past four months tasting through hundreds of samples to find the highest quality possible. We were able to find many great close-outs this year. By that I mean wholesalers who had too much inventory and were willing to part with wine at an unusually low price, sometimes 50% off! Green’s was happy to help. We have passed these amazing values on to you, our customers. All have been taste-tested and meet the Green’s standard for quality in their price range.
We invite you to come to one of our 4 South Carolina stores and partake of South Carolina’s best wine values. No other wine store in South Carolina goes to this much work to save you money. -Green’s Wine Director

Green’s Cash Price: $10.99
Click here to download article as PDF file.
You loved our Angel’s Landing Stag’s Leap 2007 Cab offer. (We sold 112 cases over the holidays). Park Lane Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon 2007 has been a hit as well. After selling 56 cases, we were recently able to get a second shipment in. But we have found another great wine deal, Louis Martini Cabernet Sauvignon Sonoma 2007.
We tasted this wine back in November and were very excited by its quality. It was scheduled to be put in our 2007 California Cabernet Sauvignon promotion this month. However, the latest Wine Advocate issue arrived at the end of December and, lo and behold, look what it said:
“…blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest the other Bordeaux varietals. An exquisite value, this is a seductive, fleshy, fruity wine with excellent texture, body, and balance. Lots of cassis as well as silky tannins characterize this top bargain pick!…90 points.”-Robert Parker
Naturally we quadrupled our order! It’s nice to have your opinion validated by the critics.
The second best thing about this wine is its price, only $10.99. There is a 10% Case discount (mixed or solid) as well.
A word to the wise, buy this wine by the case, and now. It is going to fly off our shelves!
