Alcohol Beverage Services Becomes Exclusive Mid-Atlantic Seller of Domaine de Galuval Wines from the Rhône Valley of France



Montgomery County Alcohol Beverage Services (ABS) has leveraged its direct import capacity and is now offering eight creative and cutting-edge wines from the Domaine de Galuval winery in the Rhône Valley of France. ABS serves as the exclusive distributor of these wines in the Mid-Atlantic Region. Only a few other U.S. outlets—in California, Puerto Rico and New York City—carry Domaine de Galuval products.

The Domain de Galuval wines are available now in all ABS Liquor Wine retail stores and Oak Barrel & Vine stores throughout the County. They also are available at participating privately owned beer and wine stores and restaurants.

The eight highly rated wines are unique creations, inspired by nature and true to the individual character of each vintage. The eye-catching labels feature works of art that represent the unique geology and character of the terroirs of the Domain de Galuval Estate. By importing directly, ABS is able to offer the products at attractive price points.

The Rhône Valley is one of the most dynamic, food friendly and varietally diverse regions of quality wines from France. It is an Old World wine region where vineyards have been cultivated for more than 2,000 years. The Rhône River rises in the Alps and flows 120 miles south to the Mediterranean Sea.

  • La Vallée 2022 Cairanne Blanc
  • La Montagne 2020 Cru des Côtes du Rhône
  • Les Collines 2020 Cru des Côtes du Rhône Rasteau
