Did you know?

As we move into a time of growing need to become less dependent on energy in general, we strive to make our lives less harmful to the earth. The wine world is starting to listen, and in some cases, winery owners are speaking out and encouraging others to join in the cause to eliminate their carbon footprint. And many in the vineyards know just how much Climate Change has and will continue to effect their wines.

Well, simply put, it’s the direct effect a winery’s practices have on the environment, in terms of carbon dioxide emissions (to figure out what your carbon footprint is, check out http://w.plant-a-tree-today.org/NewQuickOffset.asp). Those of us in the wine industry have become increasingly concerned about the effect winemaking has on the environment. For an in depth understanding of wine’s effect on the world via carbon footprint check out http://www.nature.org/tncscience/misc/art25684.html.

We're back! Or perhaps I should say – I'm rebooting this blog site.
Debbie has gone, but I've taken her place (as hard as that job may be,
I'm up for the task). This blog will change form and morph into
something of a website.

Special thanks to our wonderful customers for making Ansley Wine Merchants once again “Best Wine Shop of Atlanta 2006″ in Creative Loafing magazine. Since 1995 we have been voted Best Wine Shop of Atlanta by either the readers or critics, and on at least a couple of occasions both, of Creative Loafing. Our signs, it’s always our signs, and of course our helpful staff, that are most often mentioned. But our Customer Greeter, Jack, was finally recognized for his contribution to the store in this year’s write-up. “Listen to the poodle,” says Creative Loafing, and we agree.
