ClassicWines.com, LLC, based out of Chester, PA, is more of a technology focused company than meets the eyes when visiting their web sites. On the outside they are a data publisher, content provider and community. However, few know the technology that is required to work with third party client (wineries and web retailers) product data, normalize, parse and ultimately display on such a site in a price comparison format. Especially when dealing with a flurry of wine product data.

What would make this site different -- and loved -- is it would be full of the people you know and meet in real life everyday. And it would go with you your whole life. It was real life on the Internet.

Then we realized it could be more.
