Pure Brilliance at Schloss Gobelsburger!
There
are two words that get abused in the wine trade - "cult" and "genius."
The original use of "cult" to describe wines was limited to a couple of
micro-production California Cabernets that commanded shocking prices in
the middle of the 1990s - Harlan, Bryant, Screaming Eagle and the like.
The word "cult" soon was applied to any winery that charged too much
for its wines, but didn't make very much of it.

Think INSIDE the Box!
Gomer's
Midtown is always on the lookout for great new wines & spirits, and
sometimes they come in unexpected packages. Literally.
Over the past year, we've found a surprising amount of good wine being
packaged in boxes and 'tetra packs' Try to get the image of Franzia out
of your mind: these new wines are,
in many cases, better than what others are putting in glass bottles.

GOMER’S MIDTOWN NEW BEER ARRIVALS!
"Fill with mingled cream and amber,
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain.
Quantist thoughts – queerest fancies,
Come to life and fade away:
What care I how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."
– Edgar Allan Poe
