Can someone recommend a good wine store in NYC? Thanks.

Try IS-Wine - 225 E.Fifth St. between 2nd Ave. and Cooper Sq.

Especially if you're looking for good advice and value in wines--not just names to impress.

I third is-wine!
- Punkoz - 01-20-2004
Thanks.

Look at my post on the Italian Thread. WW
- Georgie - 01-21-2004
Good advice, good value, an interesting selection AND a charming shopkeeper can all be found at IS-Wine!
- Punkoz - 01-21-2004
So I guess Foodie works at IS-Wine?
- Innkeeper - 01-21-2004
Owns it.
- Thomas - 01-21-2004
Owns it or it owns me, not sure which it is right now.
Anyway, thanks all for the kind words, and punk...if you drop by ask for me.
Better ask for Thomas--they don't know from foodie here.

Foodie,
Do you have a set schedule for when you are in? I stopped by last Friday and you weren't around. Spoke to Paul. His recommendation was excellent. I might stop by again on Thursday. Thanks.
- Thomas - 01-28-2004
I am usually away every other weekend--last week I was away.
I will definitely be around this Thursday.
Paul is new at the shop, but he is coming along fine. What did he recommend?
- Punkoz - 01-28-2004
I think it was the Carmenere SAINT ELIAS 2002. I have the printout at home.
- Thomas - 01-28-2004
I did a class last week where I served that wine with chocolate--great combination.

Every time I am in the City, you are out of the City.
Does that mean something?
- Thomas - 01-28-2004
You need a better travel agent Mike...
When are you coming back? Are you going to try to make it to the Glenora event?
- Punkoz - 01-30-2004
Stopped by yesterday at 8:00 pm. I didn't know you leave early. Bought a mixed case. Tried the Ninth Island Shiraz. So far 2 for 2. But I liked the Saint Elias better tho.
- Thomas - 01-30-2004
You know, on my way to the apartment I wondered if I had missed you. I did! Sorry again.
Did you leave us your email address for tasting information?

No problem. Your workers are quite helpful. I think I left my email address.
