NYT Article: Wine Grown in the Heart of Vienna

"That any wine comes from Vienna seems absurd on the face of it. Great urban centers are not known for their vineyards, beyond a novelty acre here and there. But Vienna is different. Around 1,700 acres of vines are planted within the city limits. Of the great metropolises in wine-growing countries, Vienna alone has its own appellation."
Find out how Carlo Huber and Paul Darcy turned a love of Viennese wine into a business here.

Monthly Wine Club

We've been busy at Bon Vivant, trying to make it easier for you to get your favorites. We're very excited about one of our newest projects, the Wine of the Month club. For $45 a month we'll ship you two bottles of hand-selected wine before our regular customers have a chance to buy it. You may choose a white and red or two reds. If you find a new favorite and want to order more we will extend a 10% discount to you on your first reorder. Some of these wines are limited in quantity, so don't wait too long. We'll also add in tasting notes, pairing suggestions, and a little information on how we found the wine. Your first shipment will also include a recyclable 6-bottle wine tote.

All subscriptions include shipping and handling. We're excited to be your personal wine shoppers. To sign up, go to our website.
