Are you looking for a small surprise each month to turn your evenings into something out of the ordinary? Tired of looking at the wine shelves in the supermarket wondering if there’s something in all the bottles with cute animals on the labels that is above average to buy?

Want to taste and read the back story of exotic and undiscovered wines from far away lands… where the wines taste more expensive than they are? Do you like the idea of supporting small farms producing natural wines where the grapes are grown sustainably, the wines are made by hand, and the flavors are complex and real?

I recommend 3BOTTLES… for $55 or less + shipping you’ll receive 3 wines each month delivered to your home or office.

3BOTTLES is a monthly wine club, a collaboration between Jay Murrie and myself that I believe is the best program we have at 3CUPS. Click here to learn about how to sign up for 3BOTTLES and how it works.

This month’s 3BOTTLES is an exciting set... all 3 wines are from importer Kermit Lynch. The cost is $55.  The text explains why we love his wines and the groundbreaking innovations he has brought to his trade as an importer and a retailer of authentic wines. He’s been at it for over 30 years and lives half time in Provence, the other half in the bay area of San Francisco. Below you’ll find a brief part of this month’s text. And our Weekend Wine is one of the 3 wines from this month’s Kermit Lynch 3BOTTLES set. Stop by today for a free taste!

Kermit Lynch is a hero in my book. He’s been blazing the trail for close to 40 years as a pioneer promoting his portfolio of authentic wine… the same type of wine we sell at 3CUPS. Like many others working in the food business, I made my pilgrimage to Berkeley in the late 1980s to visit the hallowed ground where he practiced his trade. In a small dimly lit wine shop on San Pablo in Berkeley, I was under whelmed by the physical space, the signage and merchandising and I remember thinking; wow, the product is good enough that the rest doesn’t really matter. I bought some wine from the enthusiastic staff person working the floor and went next door and had an eggplant sandwich at Alice Water’s Café Fanny.
