I’ve been doing my best to tell loyal AmericanMadness readers ways they can recession proof their wine portfolio. Let’s face it, times are tough, and there is no reason to lay down a lot of green for a good bottle of plonk.

Enter into the fray Wines ‘Til Sold Out.

It works like this; every day they put up a new bottle of wine at a cut rate price. Maybe it will make it to midnight, maybe not. One bottle a day, a price that is supposedly 30% – 70% off retail prices, take it or leave it.

For the wine world, it is an interesting concept, though this sounds more like something for a mattress seller or car dealers. I half expect to see a breathless TV commercial with a fat man dressed up in a gorilla suit advertising this thing.

While I know the site facilitates the purchase of a bottle of vino on the cheap, I wonder about the quality for two reasons. First, to have such excess inventory infers there was a large initial order. While there are some mass produced wines that aren’t half bad, I don’t exactly want to find an outlet for Yellow Tail at 70% off. Second, there is probably a very good reason these particular bottles didn’t sell so well in the first place.

Nevertheless, I’ll definitely give it a go and if I come across any gems, I’ll let you know.
