The story

The story behind Excelsior

Excelsior is a value label, the kind of wine built to land on the table without ceremony. The Cabernet Sauvignon is the familiar shape of the grape: dark fruit, a little cedar and green herb, tannin that firms up but does not fight you. We do not have a documented estate or founding story to hand you here, and we will not invent one. What we can tell you is what the bottle does.

This is Cabernet as a house pour, not a cellar trophy. It drinks young and generous, works with food, and costs less than a sandwich and a coffee. Our customers buy it by the bottle for Tuesday and by the case for the backyard. That is the whole pitch, and it has held up for years on our shelf.

Buying guidance

Which Excelsior is right for you?

The Excelsior Cabernet Sauvignon is $9.99 for a 750mL bottle. The Chardonnay is $7.99 and the Sauvignon Blanc is $8.99, so a mixed three bottle run stays under thirty dollars. These are everyday prices on an everyday label, not a markdown gimmick. Call us at (631) 343-7200 to check stock before you drive over, since value wines move fast.

Make the most of it

Excelsior cocktails and pairings

Cabernet wants fat and char. Pour Excelsior with a burger, a lamb chop or a hard cheese and the tannin settles down.
Good to know

Excelsior questions, answered

Is Excelsior Cabernet Sauvignon dry or sweet?
It is a dry red wine. Cabernet Sauvignon is a dry style by definition, and the fruit you taste is ripeness rather than sugar. Expect dark fruit and a lightly tannic finish, not sweetness.
What does Excelsior Cabernet pair with?
Grilled and roasted red meat is the easy answer. Burgers, lamb, steak and hard aged cheese all work because fat and char soften the tannin. Avoid delicate white fish and very spicy dishes.
How much is a bottle of Excelsior Cabernet at your store?
The Excelsior Cabernet Sauvignon 750mL is $9.99. The Chardonnay is $7.99 and the Sauvignon Blanc is $8.99. Call (631) 343-7200 to confirm stock before you visit.
Do you deliver Excelsior wine on Long Island?
Yes. We offer same-day or next-day delivery across Nassau and Suffolk, free local delivery over $250, and free curbside pickup at our Commack store. Wine shipping goes only to states where it is legal, confirmed at checkout.
Where is Excelsior wine made?
We cannot confirm a specific origin or producer for this label, so we will not guess. Treat it as a value Cabernet made in the familiar dry red style, and judge it on the pour rather than a place name.
