A wine’s value is an important aspect when you’re looking to purchase. All aspects that make a wine good are thrown out of the water if its price doesn’t justify the experience! A wonderful tasting session, backed up by the thought of not breaking the bank too hard on an evening filled with good Shiraz can make your ENTIRE weekend. A wine that gives value through quality at the right price defines perfection.  

Black Friday, an occasion that traditionally marks the start of Christmas shopping, is known for the sales and discounts that many stores offer. But we’ve got it going all year long with these winning wines from Paris Wine Cup that provide insane value for their price without compromising on quality and taste!
