Northwest Needs: Avalon Wine

Living on the other side now, I often find it difficult to source some of the wonderful wines I became fond of from both Oregon and Washington. I needed a way to find these wines without having to join every last winery mailing list.

Luckily, a crew like Avalon Wine exists where I can keep in contact with my tried and trusted, and be introduced to new ones which seem to be popping up all too quickly.  

There is a ‘Best under $20’ section that I glance over often, and though it is only to dream now that I am on a budget, I still find myself staring at highly sought after wine which Avalon manages to stock. I know where to come when I fall off the horse.  Until then, it is not hard to find some wonderful, inexpensive options on this site that will help put more bottles on the table. If you have some time and want to learn more about N.W. Wine, Avalon Wine has plenty of in-depth coverage regarding veteran producers and historical vineyards, as well as first looks at what’s to come. A site well worth the visit.
