Charles River Wine Company's February 2012 Edition
Great Belgium Chocolates added to our Portfolio
February has turned out to be an interesting month for us at CRWC. We have successfully launched our distribution of Belgium Chocolate from four leading producers; Café-Tasse, Côte D’Or, Dolfin and Nirvana. Selling Chocolates at fine wine stores is a natural and our sales to date have been impressive. We will highlight our chocolates at our Spring Portfolio Tasting at Eastern Standard in Kenmore Square. Our list of chocolates is growing and will be updated each month in our published price list. Click here to download our offer with graphics and prices.
New Italian Wines from Traditional Wine Innovations– In Stock Selling Briskly
Our first major addition to our portfolio in 2012 are the wines of Importer Bonnie Williamson's company Traditional Wine Innovations. We find Bonnie to be an inspired and experienced wine talent and we look forward to introducing her to our customers soon. All of her wines showed well in our tastings. They are packaged to sell and are very good values.

Making use of this website
When we launched our website in June of 2009 we wrote: "We are determined to keep this site up-to-date and worthy of regular visits by our customers and business associates." We feel good about the job that we have done to date especially in keeping our popular "Reviews Database" up-to-date each month.
You may access articles and reviews by clicking on the items that interest you in our Navigation Bar in the left hand column. Highlights of our web pages are listed below.
The combined content on our suppliers’ websites come together as an online encyclopedia of our wines. We invite you to visit our Links Page to connect to the websites maintained by the Wineries and Specialty Importers that supply our wines.
These sites are packed with details about the wines that we sell and background information about our winemakers and their wineries. Many of the sites offer downloads of ready-to-print point of sale materials.
The sites are listed in alphabetical order by supplier name. Wineries with a "Person's Name" will be found under their last name ("Walter Hansel Winery" in the "H"s.) Wineries named "Bodega...", "Chateau...", "Domaine..." etc., will be found under the estate name ("Bodegas Carrau" in the "C"s.)
Please note that it is rare that we carry every wine that you may come across on a particular supplier's website. Please inquire about any wines that you find of interest that you do not find in our current portfolio.

Our FEBRUARY 2012 UPDATE: RATINGS & REVIEWS page is jam packed with up-to-date notes about our wines from key wine publications. There you will find two useful files that may be downloaded as pdfs.
“Quotas vs. Priorities” and “Brands vs. Exclusives” are two parts of a series called “Advantage: The Small Wholesaler.” Here Peter Sagansky compares the focus of independent small wholesale wine distributors to the focus of the large commercial houses in today’s tough economic times. These pieces are in a sense our company’s mission statement.
Our “MA Trade Only” page allows our Massachusetts customers to download all of our current Price Lists and our Price List version complete with Ratings from major publications.
The “MA Trade Only” page requires that you enter a “User Name” and “Password” to gain access. Please contact your salesperson or send us a message on our “Contact Our Company” page for details on how to log in.
