Wine Rambler-approved german wine merchants: (3) Weinhandelshaus Scholzen

Product Range: Fairly comprehensive on the South of France, Italy and Spain, good on Germany, a small selection of the rest. Interesting older wines (Bordeaux, Languedoc) at very fair prices come up from time to time.

Pricing: Fairly unbeatable.

Wine prose: None to speak of. Wine descriptions mostly just cite journalist rankings and points. But that's ok, no Parker hypocrisy either.

Upsides: Very competitive prices. The range of wines under 6 € is exceptional, and - as far as I can say - very decent throughout. Since prices are mostly cheaper even than in supermarkets, shipping included, you can stock up on everyday wines without regrets.

Downsides: Shoddy service. Sorry to put it so bluntly. Although I was always happy with the wine, actually getting it shipped is hard work. Every order I placed needed at least one follow-up call to even start the process. Orders that included sold-out wine were simply cancelled without any notice, and so on...
