We know that you measure us by the pleasure you get when you raise our wines to your nose. And that this measurement occurs with every new bottle. So we go to any length to stockpile the Rockwood & Perry Selection with the best quality wines available from every production zone. It is a matter of personal and professional pride.

Following earlier work in marketing and the tennis business, I established Rockwood & Perry with my wife, Fran Perry, in 1982. In the process I turned a life-long fascination with wine into a way of earning a living. While Fran is still involved in the business, she is now a full-time Realtor.

From the beginning, we dedicated the store to small-scale wine producers who were totally committed to quality. It became evident that we could sell these superior wines at sharper prices by going directly to the vineyards to buy them. So twenty years ago we made our first appointments with negociants in Bordeaux. We bought and shipped 800 cases of cheap, excellent-class Bordeaux directly to our rear door and haven't looked back since. Our contacts in Bordeaux, Burgundy, the Rhône Valley, Piedmont and Tuscany ensure that you can order a Pomerol, Barolo, Chianti Classico, Gevrey Chambertin, Cornas, etc., etc. from us and have an outstanding wine experience at less cost. In many, if not most cases, we are the only U.S. outlet for these wines.
