BevMo 5 Cent Sale Reviews
My recommendations for the current BevMo 5 Cent Sale showing the full price and the price when you buy in pairs. Continue reading
BevMo 5 Cent Sale February 2013
Each BevMo 5 Cent Sale, I scour the BevMo Website and visit the Burlingame BevMo store to sort out what I think are the best bargains in the maze of unknown labels in the sale. Usually there is a batch of wines from a few noted wineries who sell a large inventory of wines to BevMo in order to make room for their next vintage. Continue reading
Bargain wines for the week of September 24th
This is a clear winner at the BevMo 5 cent sale. So smooth and full of flavors, a mix of red and black fruit. No herbaceous characteristics that you often find in Malbec wines from Argentina in the low price range. Continue reading
BevMo 5 Cent Sale Fall 2012 – Which wines to buy
I was pleasantly surprised to find the BevMo store in Burlingame had several new wines to offer for the Fall 5 Cent Sale, alongside the usual inventory of BevMo partner wines. One nice touch, BevMo has tagged all wines new to the sale with a “New” sticker. It helps!
Mondavi Napa Valley Chardonnay – Top Bargain Wine Pick of the Week
This is the best of both worlds for a Chardonnay, so easy drinking and refreshing yet a full mouth feel with gentle amount of oak. 80% of the grapes were fermented in French oak barrels and the rest in stainless steel tanks. Continue reading
BevMo Five-Cent Sale Summer 2012 – 4 Buying Tips
Do not go buy Wilfred Wong’s point evaluations. I like to rely on my own palate for rating wines, or on my wine friends who I think have similar palates to mine. I have tasted some 90-Point WW rated wines that tasted like 85-Point wines.

Kirkland Rutherford Meritage – Our wine recommendation of the week
Cheapskate Wednesday on WinesTilSoldOut – Wednesday, May 16. Here is a blurb I received from WinesTilSoldOut about their marathon event on this coming Wednesday. If you like the Flash wine sale Websites, you will like this special sale. Continue reading
Albariño is our top recommendation for Mother’s Day
White wines are good all year around but even more delightful as the days begin to warm, as with our weather this week. Let’s hope it holds through Mother’s Day. With that in mind, I have three value white wines to recommend for this week. Two wines come from BevMo and the third from Cost Plus World Market. Continue reading
Wine Glasses – Bargain style and where to buy
In short, you want a wine glass to be clear with a medium to tall tulip-style bowl. This is your “go to” wine glass for red or white wines. Yes, you can purchase the expensive Riedel wine glasses for Bordeaux wines, Burgundy wines and Chardonnay wines. Continue reading
BevMo 5 Cent Sale begins anew for 2012 – Some Recommendations
The sale is currently in full swing as of the date of this post. By and large, it seems to be the same fare offered with a few additions. As usual there are many obscure labels rated by only Wilfred Wong and no other wine critic. Well, maybe I found a couple of wines that had ratings by W.S. or W.E. or somebody else. If you dig deep enough, there are a handful of excellent values. Continue reading
