where can I buy Solaz wine at a retail store in Seattle, WA?
I just bought some last weekend at World Market in Silverdale
Anne,
From a quick search on WineZap, it looks like you can buy Solaz at Mad Wine in Bellevue for $6.99 a bottle. Let me know what you think of it.
Cheers
I greatly enjoyed this wine of tempanillo/cab. Do you know where I can purchase this in New Jersey (central New Jersey)?
The WineZap search turned up a few hits in the NYC area:

I’d bet than any well stocked wine store should have it in your area.
I bought a bottle at Costco
Just wanted to let everyone know that I’m stationed in Spain and MAN! are there some excellent wines that no one ever hear’s about.
Had a glass today and WOW..very smooth..highly recommened..Great taste
WOW!!!! We ordered cases of this wine for my son’s wedding. Then we watched (and laughed) as guest after guest started asking the bartenders for the empty bottles. They wanted to take the bottles home for reference. At $5.00 a bottle this is one of the best reds I have ever tasted at any prince.
Somehow many inexpensive Tempranillo have this effect, Maureen. Looks like the 2004 is now starting to show up in distribution here in the U.S. so it’s about time to try it once again… glad your guests enjoyed it!
