Wine.com by eVineyard adds Dean & DeLuca baskets

Wine.com by eVineyard is beefing up the offerings at its site even more. Wine.com and Dean & DeLuca are partnering to offer wine and food baskets at Wine.com. Shoppers can choose Dean & Deluca’s proprietary wines or from the Wine.com selection of more than 5,000 wines.

"This collaboration of Dean & DeLuca and wine.com by eVineyard is just one of many partnerships we`re forming to make sure that the wine.com shopping experience is the best in the country this holiday season," said Brett E. Lauter, vice president and chief marketing officer for eVineyard, Inc.

Wine.com is expanding its selection of gifts and wine accessories, adding a greater assortment of wine cellars and nearly doubling its gift products.

Wine.com by eVineyard is the result of eVineyard Inc.’s acquisition this year of Wine.com Inc., including the wine.com and Wineshopper.com URLs. EVineyard says it sells into the top 10 wine markets, reaching over 75% of the United States market for off-premise premium wine sales.

Dean & DeLuca sells fine food, kitchenware and wine by retail location, catalog and web site. It has sold on the Internet since 1996.
