The Wine Importer

What's New at Seattle's Unique Wine Company?
Unique Wine Company is a distributor based in Seattle, Washington. They don't buy our wines, but as a public service I thought my readers would like to know what's new over at Unique.

Unique has recently acquired several new product lines. These brands include:

Fess Parker
Mont St-Helena, which inexplicably seems to come from Napa
Block 13, which seems to be a sub-brand of Gundlaud-Bundshu. I've always loved the name of that winery.
Several new wines from Frontier Imports, including Campo Purisima de Concepcion, Bodegas Aruspide and Bodegas Manuel Piquer. I've never drank any of those wines, so I have no critical insight to offer about any of these Bodegas from trend-setting Frontier Imports
most importantly, the fabulous Il Bastardo is back in stock.

In other news....Bert Mason, who started Unique Wine Company in 1981, spent part of his summer on Ohana Island as part of Firefighter Survival. Mr. Mason is a volunteer firefighter and his hobbies include auto racing, model cars and photography.

Unique Wine's web site describes Mr. Mason as "our fearless leader" and has the following revealing quote from the company's founder, explaining why he participated in the Firefighter Survival week:

I have never done anything like it, and need to see how difficult it might be. I have never failed at anything I've attempted!

Unfortunately, Unique's web site does not give any details about what Mr. Mason did on Ohana Island, although they do have a remarkable picture of him in his volunteer firefighter's uniform. I did find more information on Firefighter Survival Week on the ever-useful Firehouse.Com site:
