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!

𝐓𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐞 𝐑𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐞 “𝐇𝐢𝐠𝐡 𝐒𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐬” 𝐒𝐲𝐫𝐚𝐡, 𝐒𝐢𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐚 𝐅𝐨𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐬 𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟔 – 98 points, Wine EnthusiastOur "High Slopes" Syrah is made from vineyard sites that are near or exceed the 3,000 foot elevation in the rocky Sierra Foothills. These more extreme, cool sites highlight the racy finesse and subtle aromatics of the grape, while still retaining some of the smoky, spicy qualities of Syrah that make it so enjoyable. We focus on the terroir-oriented attributes of these sites for this special limited bottling.Terre Rouge and Easton Wines ... See MoreSee Less
