What makes us unique?

Having your own bottling line is all about controlling all aspects of quality! Shai Van Gelder is all about quality! Using natural cork that is of the highest grade insures the wine is protected! There is no replacement! Other forms of inclosures are just secondary! We bottle when the wine tells us too!

truly a unique experience!

 

Thank you to everyone that turned out for this unique wine comparison event – it was an exceptional night! For those of you that missed the January 17th event, we featured our 2011 Limited Reserve Tannat to a variety of Uruguay’s vintages of 1972 & older. Howard was given these rare Uruguay vintages – the last of these bottles – during his visit to Uruguay as a gift from the owners of Bodegas Carrau Winery. We’ve included some photos of the night.
