Holiday Gift Sampler
For the chef! In Italy, fine olive oil is as important at table as fine wine. Here we have three superb olive oils (from Liguria, Sicily, and Tuscany) matched with three versatile wines crafted by the same domaines. Given the array of aromas and flavors in all six of these bottlings, you’ll find olive oil tasting can be as thought-provoking and conversation-sparking as wine tasting!

Every three or four months I would send my clients a cheaply made list of my inventory, but it began to dawn on me that business did not pick up afterwards. It occurred to me that my clientele might not know what Château Grillet is, either. One month in 1974 I had an especially esoteric collection of wines arriving, so I decided to put a short explanation about each wine into my price list, to try and let my clients know what to expect when they uncorked a bottle. The day after I mailed that brochure, people showed up at the shop, and that is how these little propaganda pieces for fine wine were born.—Kermit Lynch
