Rush Wines Distribution

Rush Wines is a small, Birmingham-based distributor of limited-production wines from independently owned wineries around the world. Founded in August of 2002 by entrepreneur Rush Garner,

Rush Wines seeks to promote wine awareness in Alabama by bringing some of the world’s finest wines to its local markets, as well as by introducing consumers to the people behind the wines. The company is also involved in the production of its own private-label series of wines, which embodies our focus on higher-quality, handcrafted wines made by small-scale, family-owned wineries.

Rush Cellars

Founded by Alabama native Rush Garner in 2005, the Rush Cellars project began with the release of 728 cases of cabernet sauvignon from California to the Alabama market. Today, some 40,000 cases later, Birmingham resident Rush Garner has created an array of additional wines to compliment his flagship Cabernet.

The Rush Cellars portfolio now comprises a Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sparkling, Pinot Grigio, and a red blend called the Ol’ Vine Red. Available exclusively in Alabama, these handcrafted wines are made with the Southeast’s climate and accessibility to fresh Gulf seafood in mind. There are other wines in the works so look for this exciting brand at a store near you!

Happy veraison, San Felice!!The colors are changing, harvest is just around the corner.Veraison has begun in our vineyards: the grape clusters are turning shades as they slowly ripen.But it’s more than just a change in color, this is the start of a deeper transformation.Flavor, texture, and chemistry begin to evolve.Nature is doing its work, and the wine is starting to take shape. ***Colori che cambiano, vendemmia alle porte.Nei nostri vigneti l’invaiatura è iniziata: i grappoli si tingono di nuove sfumature e si preparano alla maturazione.Oltre al colore, questo momento segna l’inizio di una trasformazione profonda: gli acini evolvono in sapore, consistenza e composizione.La natura fa il suo corso, il vino prende forma.#sanfelice #vineyards #winelovers #winetasting #tuscanwine ...
