The Bard is a really good wine and not too crazy ($100-$125 range). But it is hard to find, unless you join their mailing list. Then it takes about a year of being in the mailing list to get a modest allocation.

Realm has the best shipping of any winery or retailer I have had ship to me. They use cold packs and packaging so when the wine arrives, it feels like it was just pulled out of a wine cellar (at least with overnight shipping), even in FL where it was low-80 degree range on delivery day. I’ve seen some others use cold packs, but Realm has a really nice packing setup.
