As more of our customers purchase wine refrigerators for their homes, or use professional wine storage, we are consistently fielding calls to help select bottles that will benefit from long term ageing. Unfortunately only a small percentage of wines are actually capable of improving over time.
When making cellar recommendations we look for several components... grapes that will yield a balanced wine with structure, acidity and concentration, a winemaker with a proven track record and a vintage that produced grapes with full phenolic ripeness.
For our customers with patience and the ability to store wines, we have put together the "Stellar Cellar Six Pack" of wines that will add value and style to anybody's wine collection. All of these wines are made by producers we respect, from grapes grown in a great vintage... sit back, relax and let nature work its magic.
