Fine Wine. No Attitude.

At Frankly Wines, we offer our version of the well-stocked wine closet: a well-edited selection of daily essentials, quirky finds, and higher end treasures for when you’re feeling flush.

Our selection skews towards the Southern Hemisphere, but you’ll also find wines from most other major (and minor) regions of the world. And you can be sure every bottle represents great value – when you sell less than 200 wines, they all have to be good!

Search or browse our wine selection. Or scroll down to see our featured wines and rotating three packs.

Featured Wine: WINES YOU NEVER KNEW YOU NEEDED

Frappato - horizontal.jpg

Valle dell'Acate "Il Frappato" 2008 (Sicilia, Italy)
Frappato is one of those grapes you've probably never heard of. We hadn't until last summer when one of our sales reps came by with the winemaker and an open bottle. Given that the wine is a red from Sicily, we were expecting something big, full-bodied, typical of a hot island climate. But no - this Frappato was absolutely charming. Light red (but not quite into rose territory) with notes of bright fresh red berries and roses. It's perfect for summer days and can be drunk just a little bit chilled.

Featured Wine: PINOT MONTH: Pinot Sampler Case

pinot pack - small.jpgWe wanted to declare June Pinot Noir month (Pinot Noir to be specific, not to be confused with Piont Gris, Grigio, or Blanc). We were going to have Pinot tastings, Pinot 3-packs, high-end Pinots on dispaly, value Pinots on offer, Pinots packed into every corner of this tiny store. But no, vacation got in the way.

But we did managed put together this great Pinot sampler case for less than $200. $180 before tax to be exact.

It's your chance to try Piont Noirs from around the world, touching on all the top regions. We've even managed to sneak in a very nice Premier Cru from France's Burgundy region.

Featured Wine: Scooping the New York Times: Vaona Valpolicella

valpolicella_classico.jpgVaona Valpolicella Classico 2007 (Valpolicella, Italy)We've had this wine on the Frankly Wine shelves since February, when one of our sales reps brought a bottle, winemaker in tow, for us to taste. It was just a really well-made, very enjoyable, highly drinkable wine - exactly what a Valopolicella should be.  Fast foward to May, when we were both delighted and horrified to discover that Eric Asimov and Co. chose the Vaona as their #1 pick out of 25 different Valpolicellas in a recent "Wines of the Times" column

Price: $16.99

Featured Wine: It's OK to drink rose....sometimes even aged rose!

Lopez rosado - horizontal.jpg

Lopez de Heredia Tondonia Rosado 1998: It's an unusual rose that can stand up to some age.  Most are meant to be drunk when they're young, fresh, and charmingly pink.  But the New York times piece mentions two roses that can evolve to "oldie but goodie" status.  This 10-year old LdH is one of them.  It's defintiely not typical - so much so that in the store, we put a warning lable on it Intrigued? 

Price: $27.99

3 Pack: RAH RAH RIESLING!

riesling cheerleaderWine geeks love Riesling.  Perhaps because this grape reflects the specific site it’s from in a way that drives wine geeks crazy with wine geek glee. 

But you don’t have to be a wine geek to enjoy a good Riesling.   Let this 3-Pack introduce you to three from around the world.  And because we don’t want fear of sweetness to scare anyone off, there’s not a sweet one in the bunch.  All three are dry.  If you find these too sweet, you may want to consider drinking some sand.

Price: $49.49  (regular price $54.97)
