Well I decided to go to wordpress and create a web page. This is what Ihave come up with. It is pretty self explanatory and will change greatly as I become accustom to everything I can do with it.
I am trying to create a small forum, for wine purchased at my store, that will allow my customers to critic and review the wine I sell, the store and service they received.
I am hoping this will inform me on the proper stock and service that my customers will be looking for in the future.

Look forward to this site. One comment about wines in general. I realize that a wine store needs to make a profit so selling lower priced wines is problematical. However, I read a book a number of years ago written by William F. Buckley, the political commentator, (true story) about planning to sail across the Atlantic with a group of friends. One chapter was devoted to their search for good wines under $5 per bottle for the trip and the success they found in their search. Today, I would imagine that would put the current prices in the $10-$15 range. With the better higher priced wines, it would seem that a good mix of lower priced wines for every day drinking might be of interest to your customers. And, there a good number of fairly priced and highly rated wines. This is just an observation from a long time wine buyer who has been drawn into many a wine store buy a good buy.
I agree, 10 – 15 dollar wines, especially if it is good wine, is a great commodity to stock. I have atleast 30 different labels in that price range. I bring in 2 to 3 labels everyweek in that price range and usually sell out of it within the week. I try and change these wines often since variety is what people like. Now that this site is running I can bring these wines to my customers attention.
