From time to time, we come across special offerings and rare opportunities in the world of wine. Unfortunately, that window of opportunity slams shut before we have the time to create an email to notify you that something special is available. So, we have come up with the Duke's Spotlight to draw your attention to those special offerings that have a very limited time frame attached. When you see Duke's Spotlight in the subject line and see this special format, please remember that there is an element of urgency and you need to act quickly. These notices will not have the usual Duke "signature" email content - we intend to keep it quick and to the point - perhaps a short quote, a score, then price and availability. Short and sweet, yet with an aura of urgency.

The popularity of John Schwartz's latest effort, 2004 Coup de Foudre, has astounded many in the wine world. The Duke saw that it was about to happen and laid in an extra supply. Here is a link to our previous email if you want more information.

And then, and then!! Along comes the Wine Enthusiast with a rating of 98 points! Their quote: "This Wine is really a stunning Cab, soft and complex, rich in blackberry and chocolate fruit, and irresistibly delicious. Somehow they have made a wine that's powerful and opulent and impossibly rich, yet maintains an almost weightless elegance."

While our very limited supply lasts, we have it for you at $99.99 per bottle. Sorry, we have to limit orders to 3 bottles.
