Time To TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF more of all that we offer HERE, CONSTANTLY
CHANGING, ALWAYS TIMELY & WITH  A GREAT VALUE-TASTE RATIO WHERE YOU
GAIN-SAVE-DISCOVER & FIND FULL JOY & EXPRESSION !

BEAUTIFUL DRIVE this morning, window down, wind-swept hair, thoughts,
dreams, emotions, energy-flows, you name it?!? It was so nice to gather my
thoughts as I drove to work and felt the cold air and to admire the baby blue
sky that seemed like someone had stirred all the white clouds evenly through
it's surface. On Rock Creek parkway I saw two helicopters overhead and it made
me wonder what dignitary was driving along by me or past me : U saw nothing to
warrant two helicopters? But what do I know? I liked it anyway, it was fun to
see as you never know what will cross your path here in our dynamic city?!?

THE SAME IS TRUE when I get to Cleveland Park Wines & Spirits : I never
know exactly what the day will bring and that's a real part of the excitement
and the rush and the flow of the day and what always keeps me humble and on my
tip-toes. This is all a good thing. I keep my smile dusted off and close to me
and ready to display whenever the occasion or moment merits it. Ved just said "
Beautiful day this morning ". I could not agree more with him.

SO, COME SEE US, you never know what you will be walking into and that can
be entertaining, educational, profitable, amusing, stimulating, sudden,
surprising, welcoming ... like an epiphany : something that really gets you
going in a positive way. That's what we strive for here : welcome you, make you
feel comfortable, and share what we have at our disposal at any moment. Mostly
we want to include you in things that we are exposed to and aware of and
including here on both a day as well as a weekly basis. It's changing all the
time. One of our customers this past week just told me how much he likes this :
we take full advantage of what is available at the moment to us and pass on the
savings and the items to you while they last. True, so true.

THIS PAST WEEK we received an incredible shipment of mostly Bordeaux French
wines and reds from Argentina to share with you : ALL bought at great values
where we saved and share the savings with you. Dan brought the owner Philippe
Riviere of Maison RIVIERE here again to taste with us a week or so ago. It was
an eye-opening wine-tasting. ALL the wines I tasted were really fine and two
stood out for me for price and the fact that you could enjoy them NOW,
especially the 2009 dry red Graves :
1) CHATEAU De CALLAC Graves 2009 dry red Bordeaux ( $21.99, 13% alcohol by
volume, ) : the wine is balanced and fruit-forward, and really showing well
now.
2) CHATEAU Du GAZIN 2010 Canon Fronsac ( $19.99, 14% alcohol by volume, )
is also showing quite well now though a bit more firm and tight and with more
angularity and tannins that are sharper. BOTH are from great years in Bordeaux.
BOTH are less-expensive than usual, and BOTH are highly recommended. When you
drink them you will feel like you are in Bordeaux at one of the vineyards or in
the countryside enjoying some fine red wine, jambon, frommage, baguettes et
l'eaux mineral, avec des macarons ou une tarte aux citron plus tard ... merci
Philippe pour ta visite. C'est bien d'avoir tes vins ici qui se vendents
tellement bien chez nous.
WE HAVE MORE here and I will let you come by and check them out as well. I
will include them in a future email. I have so many wines to write about now and

glass before settling nicely into a meal that could include some goat's cheese,
some salad and vinaigrette, some shellfish, fresh water fish, sardines ... even
some milder          . It's a beauty and a great price. You should all try some.
Very much like a Sancerre except it has it's own distinct style. RE-DISCOVER the
100% Sauvignon Blancs of POUILLY-FUME. They were equally well-known in the
eighties and for some reason have fallen off our radar screens. Too bad, time to
give them their due once again. This is a great start at a GREAT PRICE.

Cleveland Park Wine Cleveland Park Beer, Liquor & Wine
Featuring a wide, international selection of fine wines, micro-brews and spirits

Time To TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF more of all that we offer HERE, CONSTANTLY
CHANGING, ALWAYS TIMELY & WITH  A GREAT VALUE-TASTE RATIO WHERE YOU
GAIN-SAVE-DISCOVER & FIND FULL JOY & EXPRESSION !

BEAUTIFUL DRIVE this morning, window down, wind-swept hair, thoughts,
dreams, emotions, energy-flows, you name it?!? It was so nice to gather my
thoughts as I drove to work and felt the cold air and to admire the baby blue
sky that seemed like someone had stirred all the white clouds evenly through
it's surface. On Rock Creek parkway I saw two helicopters overhead and it made
me wonder what dignitary was driving along by me or past me : U saw nothing to
warrant two helicopters? But what do I know? I liked it anyway, it was fun to
see as you never know what will cross your path here in our dynamic city?!?

THE SAME IS TRUE when I get to Cleveland Park Wines & Spirits : I never
know exactly what the day will bring and that's a real part of the excitement
and the rush and the flow of the day and what always keeps me humble and on my
tip-toes. This is all a good thing. I keep my smile dusted off and close to me
and ready to display whenever the occasion or moment merits it. Ved just said "
Beautiful day this morning ". I could not agree more with him.

SO, COME SEE US, you never know what you will be walking into and that can
be entertaining, educational, profitable, amusing, stimulating, sudden,
surprising, welcoming ... like an epiphany : something that really gets you
going in a positive way. That's what we strive for here : welcome you, make you
feel comfortable, and share what we have at our disposal at any moment. Mostly
we want to include you in things that we are exposed to and aware of and
including here on both a day as well as a weekly basis. It's changing all the
time. One of our customers this past week just told me how much he likes this :
we take full advantage of what is available at the moment to us and pass on the
savings and the items to you while they last. True, so true.

THIS PAST WEEK we received an incredible shipment of mostly Bordeaux French
wines and reds from Argentina to share with you : ALL bought at great values
where we saved and share the savings with you. Dan brought the owner Philippe
Riviere of Maison RIVIERE here again to taste with us a week or so ago. It was
an eye-opening wine-tasting. ALL the wines I tasted were really fine and two
stood out for me for price and the fact that you could enjoy them NOW,
especially the 2009 dry red Graves :
1) CHATEAU De CALLAC Graves 2009 dry red Bordeaux ( $21.99, 13% alcohol by
volume, ) : the wine is balanced and fruit-forward, and really showing well
now.
2) CHATEAU Du GAZIN 2010 Canon Fronsac ( $19.99, 14% alcohol by volume, )
is also showing quite well now though a bit more firm and tight and with more
angularity and tannins that are sharper. BOTH are from great years in Bordeaux.
BOTH are less-expensive than usual, and BOTH are highly recommended. When you
drink them you will feel like you are in Bordeaux at one of the vineyards or in
the countryside enjoying some fine red wine, jambon, frommage, baguettes et
l'eaux mineral, avec des macarons ou une tarte aux citron plus tard ... merci
Philippe pour ta visite. C'est bien d'avoir tes vins ici qui se vendents
tellement bien chez nous.
WE HAVE MORE here and I will let you come by and check them out as well. I
will include them in a future email. I have so many wines to write about now and
so you will have to come and discover the CHEVAL BRUN 2009 Grand Cru
Saint-Emilion, On Sale for $29.99 ; Saint Julien CHATEAU LALANDE 2009, $40.99 ;
and the Lussac Saint-Emilion CHATEAU HAUT PIQUOT 2009, $23.99 ; and more ...

WE HAVE From Argentina :
1) Winemaker's Selection Blend 20190 ( 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40%
Merlot, 10% Malbec and 10% Pinot Noir ) from owner Lucas Nemesio of NEMESIO
wines of Patagonia, Argentina is a favorite of our customers : $9.99 a bottle,
14% alcohol by volume.
2) Proprietor's Reserve 2007 dry red Blend ( 60% Malbec and 40% Cabernet
Sauvignon, 14.5% alcohol by volume, www.bodeganqn.com.ar , $19.99 , is another
really fine wine effort from Lucas. He makes such balanced and distinct wines
that really complement many a meal.

THE LOIRE VALLEY makes some fine dry white 100% Sauvignon Blanc called
POUILLY-FUME from the small town of Pouilly-Sur-Loire, France :

1) 2011 " Les Champs Aux Moines " Pouilly-Fume from Domaine PABIOT (
$18.99, 12.5% alcohol by volume, viticulteur a Nieve, France - the grower ) is
clean, crisp, fresh. lively, GREAT MINERAL and fine acidity : a treat to enjoy a
glass before settling nicely into a meal that could include some goat's cheese,
some salad and vinaigrette, some shellfish, fresh water fish, sardines ... even
some milder          . It's a beauty and a great price. You should all try some.
Very much like a Sancerre except it has it's own distinct style. RE-DISCOVER the
100% Sauvignon Blancs of POUILLY-FUME. They were equally well-known in the
eighties and for some reason have fallen off our radar screens. Too bad, time to
give them their due once again. This is a great start at a GREAT PRICE.

BUT HEY, this email is also about GREAT ALE & BEER DISCOVERIES from Santos

BRUICHLADDICH ( $65.99 a bottle, aged 10 Years ) : " new and exciting "!!!  Try
some.

WINE From Michel Dumas and me ( Anthony - Tony - Quinn ):

REDS :

1) BACI DOLCI Sweet Kiss slightly-sparkling Italian red ( $10.99, 6.5%
alcohol by volume ) : I used this in the 1st wine-class this past Saturday that
was a big success. I wanted to have something for Valentine's Day and this
showed beautifully. Just right for some, and way too sweet for others. It's a
balancing act , and it depends on what you are serving as well. GREAT VALUE,
come and taste some. I have some open for you to try. Just ask me today. Cheers.

2) 2009 CASTILLO Del CONDE red wine Semi-Sweet from Spain's Valencia region
( $9.99 a bottle,  12% alcohol by volume ) : I used this, too in our 1st wine
class. It started of a bit more fruity and then more of the plums and prunes and
spices started to blossom. It became drier and rustier, earthier, pithier :
lovelier, really. GREAT VALUE for this price. It was a big hit and we almost
sold-out. It's a regular item and we will order more. Only have 4 bottles in
stock now. Come get some ASAP or call. It's another fun, versatile red with some
fruit and loads of character and personality! Cheers.

3) French Malbec from France's Lot region south of Bordeaux on the Atlantic
coast in the town and region of Cahors.  Cahors used to be called " the black
wines " of France. They used to need a whole lot more time to age , like the
wines of Madiran in that way. They must still make some black wines in Cahors,
but today many of them are much more fruit-forward and not needing as much
cellaring time! $14.99 a bottle, 13% alcohol, from the CHATEAU ST.
DIDIER-PARNAC, 2010 and poured here this past Friday evening by Oscar an owner
of Voila Imports. Cheers.

4) 100% Tinto Rojo from Spain's Ribera Del Duero roble dry red ( $15.99 ,
13.5% alcohol by volume, ) : this 2009 we had open this Friday with Oscar and it
sure was drinking well as long as some food was added. it's an excellent food
wine, one that will be benefit the food as well as be " flashed out " some by
it. Cheers.

5) A dry Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon Blend called " Constable's House ",
a 2010 from BEAUMONT in Walker's Bay ( $19.99, 14.5% alcohol by volume.
www.beaumont.co.za ) is another perfect cold weather dry red blend that needs
the food to flesh it out and make it take flight and dance and sing and perform
magically in your mouth! Cheers. Thanks Sebastian. Thanks, too to both John and
Theresa Morrison that poured it here this past Saturday. Good to have you back!

6)  Series M 2006 dry red South African blend from VILAFONTE ( $34.99, 14%
alcohol by volume, www.vilafonte.com, a blend of 39% Merlot, 15% Malbec, 43%
Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cabernet Franc ) is made as a collaborative effort
between Zelma Long and Mike Ratcliffe. I last saw Mike last year at the wine
owner/maker trade show with Lisa Giufre. Lisa has come since with a wine owner.
Thanks Lisa. It was great to see you and to see Mike again! This Series M 2006
is showing beautifully now. It just needed time to arrive to this point in it's
development. Cheers.

WHITE :

1) Marlborough Dry Riesling New Zealand Wine 2008 from COOPERS CREEK ( On
Special for $8.99 , 13% alcohol by volume , www.hendrypremiumimports.com ) :
this wine is showing wonderfully, dry and complex and with so much body and
individual character. WOW!!! Get some while you still can. I used it for last
Saturday's wine class and it showed really well.

2) Chardonnay 2010 Hunter Valley, Australian from the HOPE Estate ( $13.99
a bottle, 13% alcohol by volume, www.hopeestate.com.au ), made by Michael Hope
that comes here on his visits to say " G'Day! ". It's flavorful, dry and complex
and a better food wine. Great for this winter. ALSO : I have 2 bottles left in
the color PINK for Breast-Cancer Awareness and the CURE at the same price. Come
and get them while you still can. Delicious dry white Chardonnay with just
enough of everything to keep everybody talking! Cheers Mike!

3) " The Furts " Gewurztraminer 2010 from Les Vignerons Reunis de
Klentzheim Kaysersberg Haut-Rhine, France ( $19.99, 12.5% alcohol by volume ) is
UTTERLY delicious and AMAZING : so thick and rich and creamy and smooth and
delightful and a real treat for this colder weather, with or without a meal. I
used it for our 1st wine-class this past Saturday and everyone loved it. Come
get some while you still can Great label, too and artwork by artist Dan Steffan.
