“In addition to the consistency, transparency and balanced wines that 2007 produced, perhaps my favorite aspect of the vintage is that it allowed winemakers to pick phenolically ripe fruit at somewhere between half a degree and a full degree lower potential alcohols. This obviously makes them more balanced as well as notably more food friendly and it’s also one of the reasons that they are so pleasant to drink already, which is to say that the first glass makes you feel like having a second. To sum up 2007, it’s an elegant, clean, pure and ripe vintage that produced balanced and age-worthy wines that deserve a place in your cellars.” – Allen Meadows, Burghound Issue 36
With five 2007s chosen as “Pinot Noir Selections” in the just released Burghound Issue 36, and a proven track record of quality, Wells Gutherie’s Copain wines are worth a serious look. Prior vintages are available for bidding as well.

Tips on placing a successful bid:
 |
 |
|
Research current retail and auction price data at www.wineprices.com to determine a fair and realistic bid price. |
|
|
|
Consider that the seller is charged a 15% to 20% commission, as well as shipping (if the wine is not in Vinfolio storage). |
|
|
|
Note the location from which you'd like your wine to be sourced. Wine in Vinfolio storage can usually be fulfilled more quickly upon bid acceptance. |
|
|
|
Make sure the quantity you are bidding on is actually available in the Marketplace. |
|
|
|
Remember, sellers are not obligated to sell their wine, but placing a fair and realistic bid will improve your chances of success. |
