Wine Without a Winery

   Last Friday's post on the 2018 crush in Napa and Sonoma Counties said yields were way up yet prices for grapes went up too, seemingly counterintuitive to the supply-and-demand cycle. 

   The good news is with the bulk wine market. This is unsold grapes or juice that usually goes to larger wine labels that buy up this bulk wine at huge discounts. This means you might find grapes that went into a hundred dollar Napa cab selling under another label for forty bucks or a nice Sonoma pinot going for less than $20. Of course, you have to know what you're looking for so keep an eye on the wine reviews.
