QUALITY STAINLESS TANKS T otal flash offers increased 5% in August compared to the same month in 2014, in part due to a high amount of offers from Last Bottle Wines, Lot 18 and Invino. Many of Last Bottle Wines' offers in August were for pricier bottles, which pushed the web- site's average flash price to $137 per 750ml bottle equivalent. Many of those high-priced wines were Cab- ernet Sauvignons, and this month Wines Vines Analytics focused on the varietal. In the past 12 months through August, flash sites made 1,627 Cabernet Sauvignon offers, which is 25% of all offers in that period. Napa County accounted for 53% of all Cab- ernet offers in the past 12 months, but that's down about 3% from the previous year. The number of Washington state Cabernet Sauvi- gnons offered by flash websites increased from 90 to 108. Offers for Cabernets from Sonoma County and other parts of California stayed about the same compared to last year. Half of all the Cabernet Sauvignons offered by the reseller websites in the past 12 months had flash prices of less than $40, with wines with flash prices of $19.99 and less accounting for slightly more than half of these offers. —Andrew Adams FLASH SITES COMPARED FOR AUGUST Flash Reseller Number of Domestic Offers Average Flash Price (750ml) Average Discount Page views* Cinderella Wine 8 $24.04 33% 15,000 Invino 100 $22.42 44% 191,000 Last Bottle Wines 99 $137.17 41% 511,000 Last Call Wines 88 $26.61 51% 9,000 Lot18 60 $20.51 29% 234,000 The Wine Spies 58 $26.74 33% 14,000 Wine Woot 69 $12.33 49% 1,409,000 Wines Til Sold Out 52 $19.35 55% 373,000 WineShopper 13 $15.68 34% 75,000 Source: Wines Vines Analytics, winesandvines.com/flash. *Source: Compete.com, August 2015.
