Hi. Can anyone recommend buyers in OR and CA that can search for and purchase Willamette reds and Napa Valley wine for me? I live on the East Coast and I am finding it difficult to locate buyers.
Thanks.

George anything specific you're looking for?

Have a look at Alpha Omega. Not really well known, even in wine circles, but their ERA is a94 point wine according to Parker and they make a full range of nice stuff-no I don't work for them.

Best of luck!

I have a 1973 Beringer Cabernet Sauvignor bottle of wine that's never been opened. I'm wondering how much it would be worth.

I would contact Bob at the Oregon Pinot Noir Club in Portland. He is very experienced and sources lots of Oregon PN's at reasonable prices.

Whats nice is; its never been opened. Once opened it loses at least half its value.

I think, once opened, the value increases if the wine is good.

I would definitely open it. Give it some air for all of us potential buyers!

God I love Sauvignor.

In fact, I may name my next dog Sauvignor.

I'd estimate about a buck more than one that was only opened once.
