Wine Enthusiast Magazine Enthusiastic About Whole Foods Market

Austin's Whole Foods Market has been named Wine Retailer of The Year by Wine Enthusiast Magazine. Winners were chosen for their contributions to the world of wine and spirits (with special consideration given to winey accomplishments and innovations made in 2007.)

Does Whole Foods truly deserve this award? (Because, seriously, Spec's is 100% unapologetically falling-down boozey. Just sayin.) Whole Foods' pairing suggestions, "top-picks" signage and free weekend tastings are good stuff, and we have to admit - we are in love with the fact that shoppers can saddle up to the little salad station by the produce department, eat a healthy salad and throw a few glasses of wine back. Organic enabling? We're good with that.

A complete list of the Wine Enthusiast winners? Sure!
