Wine Gems offers you an eclectic array of wines selected as the best in their class from the world's top wine regions. Our limited portfolio is continuously updated to present the most compelling wines currently available in the market. From the standouts among undiscovered values to the best of the elite, the wines in our portfolio are all truly wine gems.

Why Wine Gems? Quite simply, because "Life's too short to drink cheap wine." There are plenty of passable wines out there. My challenge as a wine merchant is to discover the rare wine that stands out from the pack and announces its clear superiority to its peers. For me, that is the definition of a "wine gem."

In working to build the Wine Gems program at Perriello's Cantina, LLC, I am carrying on a mission I began 15 years ago as wine buyer for the Larchmont Shore Club. My friend and fellow oenophile Irv Cherashore, architect of a masterful wine list at the Club, turned over to me responsibility for its stewardship. For the next 10 years I took pride in bringing my favorite new wines to the Club's wine list, and gained from the experience.

Before founding Wine Gems, I spent 8 years as co-owner of Select Wines, LLC, now a successful Internet wine merchant. I am forever grateful to my former colleagues at Select Wines and to numerous contacts throughout the wine trade for the experience of working together in tasting, selecting and marketing great wines during those years.

Wine Gems is a brand new chapter in my wine career. My challenge is to bring a portfolio of outstanding wines to my new clients with an unswerving commitment to customer service second to none.

And the name Wine Gems? It was inspired by my family and their unflagging support for me as I continue to pursue my passion for wine. I dedicate Wine Gems to my own family of "gems." To Griffin, Emma, Molly & Suzanne.

My name is David, and I look forward to bringing you ongoing enjoyment in wine!
