Garys Wine Marketplace Big Italian Wine Sale Begins Thursday October 1


--Over 150 Wines At 23-40% Off--

If you're Italian, or just love all things that hail from the geographical boot, you've probably been to the feast of St. Anne and the feast of San Gennaro.

But no other celebration lasts a full 15 days like our own Festival Italiano!

Stop in to any one of our three stores between October 1 and October 12 for tastes of Parmesano Reggiano, Proscuitto di Parma, pastas, Chiantis and Aglianicos. Over 150 Italian wines will be on sale from 23-40% off the regular price, our tasting counters will be sampling all kinds of Italian delicacies, and for twelve days we'll be livin' it up like Romans in 475. (No worries. The Gary's empire won't be falling anytime soon.)


JOIN US for our FESTIVAL ITALIANO! October 1-12, only at Gary's Wine & Marketplace!

Gary's Wine & Marketplace's Annual Grand Tasting on October 26, 2009 at the Madison Hotel in Morristown, NJ

An event you don't want to miss!

Gary's Wine & Marketplace's Grand Tasting is our biggest wine tasting event of the year and all the proceeds go to charity! This year's recipients include Gagnon Cardiovascular Institute at Morristown Memorial and the Interfaith Food Pantry.

This year's we're featuring over 500 wines, spirits, beer, a buffet, gourmet cheeses, and special "Spotlight Tables" in the Victorian Room!

In lieu of VIP seminars and colloquiums, this year we decided to let the wines do the talking and to let everyone in on the fun! With that in mind, the 2009 Grand Tasting will feature an entire room dedicated to wines from the finest vintages of the past decade and the critically acclaimed regions that produced them. Arrive early to experience the crème de la crème of the 21st century thus far, including:
  • 2004 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage Score: 97 points! A year "which produced wonderfully perfumed, majestically refined Brunellos with an excellent balance of fruit and superior tannins" - James Suckling, Wine Spectator

  • 2005 Bordeaux - Vintage Score: 95-100 points! "One thing I am sure of after twenty-eight years of tasting Bordeaux wines every March is that 2005 cannot be compared to any previous vintage in my experience" - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate

  • 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape - Vintage Score: 98 points! Throughout the Southern Rhone 2007 is the greatest vintage I have tasted in my thirty years working in that region. - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate

  • GF Family of Wines - An entire table introducing our latest releases of a project of which we're quite proud: our very own Go Figure, Going Forward, and Grand Finale labels from some very prestigious partner wineries

  • Spottswoode - Lindy Novak of the esteemed Spottswoode winery in Napa Valley will be present to pour her highly sought-after Spottswoode and Lyndenhurst wines.
....... and lots more!
