Houston continues to offer better wine value than most major American markets.
Gary Fountain/Contributorwith prices for everyone’s budget on the voluminous list, starting with a lovely Provençal sparkler, the Jacques Pelvas Grande Cuvee, for $24. Markups are mostly less than twice retail and the Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label Brut is $64 per bottle, almost six bucks less than wine.com’s price.
Cooper’s prices start at $25 for the lively Portal da Calcada Vihno Verde from Portugal. The most expensive wine is the 2012 L’Evangile from Pomerol for $295, about twice what it would retail for, and that’s the norm for most the wines on the list. Dom Perignon goes for $190 a bottle, only $30, give or take, more than retail.Most of Lynette Hawkins’ wines at Giacomo’s Cibo e Vino are less than double what they would sell for in a store or online.
