Will their site crash again?!

I know they had similar issues sometime last year. Guess the hype is for real!

Likewise most of my early purchases don't show up other than as dollar amounts. One of my best scores and last purchases on Winebid: ITEM PRICE 2004 Clos Rougeard (Foucault) Saumur Champigny [I3129801] $30.00 3 for $90.00 2005 Clos Rougeard (Foucault) Saumur Champigny [I3129799] $45.00 3 for $135.0...

BATF letter?
Bureau of Alcohol tobacco and firearms.

Sorry if I sound dumb but they sent you a letter for selling on winebid?

I have a similar list from WineCommune. I walked away with great wines for pocket change.
Wine Commune was the bomb back in the day! That is how I got into wine!

It won't let you add more than qty 11 @ 101.99/btl. Must have been an error? Otherwise it would be a steal for sure. "Some of the quantities requested exceed the amount in our inventory. Please contact us if you need to purchase more than the indicated amount." Oh man I hope they honor my...

Another transaction with Justin and another flawless delivery. He's the man. Thanks again Justin!

Purchased from them number of times. Able to make an offer is great. They have always been great. No complaints here.

Even with their ridiculous shipping charges, still a great deal Free local delivery makes this a no brainer for anyone in NYC. Glad the math with shipping out west still works out in your favour. Whoa, what a deal. Plus the free shipping. This is an absolute steal. Hope they actually deliver. Thank...

Needless to say, Mark was a true gentleman to deal with.

I was surprised that the Beringer Merlot Bancroft Ranch 1993 and 1994 did not jump so much from initial pricing. I just bid for this, but another person topped me. https://www.winebid.com/BuyWine/Item/7756481/1994-Chateau-Souverain-Alexander-Valley-Cabernet-Sauvignon Signs of past seepage though? [...

Huge fan of Detert here, both the CS and CF. I agree with Galloni that the CF is a fantastic wine, but it’s very much terroir driven, and I think you’d be hard pressed to identify it as CF in a blind tasting. Closer to Cab Sauvignon? If I really love Loire Valley CFs, would I like Detert CFs as wel...

Definitely agree on '04 Olga. $15 for a 375ml of such great juice is a steal! Seems like '18 Baudrys aren't getting positive reviews in general. Ironic since '18 was raved by so many as such a great vintage. Perhaps too young at this stage?

What was the verdict for this week Victor?

I know it's a thread drift, but anyone had '99 Bernard Chave Hermitage lately?

What the hell did I just read...?!?

Damn, was hoping this would be good!

Had a half a case shipped via ground from the west coast to here in east last week. Somehow, it arrived on time and all six wines seem fine. Popped one of them open and no issue. They were packaged in cardboard case and went through Interstate 80 according to the FedEx route. Guess I just lucked out.

I started a mess.

This is really crazy! Are 90's Cali cabs suddenly the hottest stock in town?!?

Personally, I don’t think the Amerhyste is worth buying. Not because it’s not good but because the price difference between it and the Journaries/Maestria and the Chavaroche/Peroline is so small. I think the Chavaroche especially does keep its wild side, but retains a lot of the fruit. The best Lev...

I had a '14 Chavaroche couple of days ago and it was incredible upon opening. All that wild feral notes I love about Levet were all there. Though, it did shut down hard maybe about an hour later. Is shutting down due to wine being too young at this stage or something else? Curious since OP mentioned...

It's only Tuesday and I'm already getting bumped aside!

I’ve had a few transactions with them lately and wouldn’t recommend buying from them. Of 5 orders I’ve attempted to place, only one was successfully fulfilled. The first, which I responded to an email offer didn’t even get a response. I was then successfully able to place an order for a couple bott...

I remember how controversial this was on release. I think they stepped up the petit verdot in the blend? I know the 2000 Pichon Lalande had an extra dollop of Petit Verdot, which some tasters felt added an objectionable green streak to that wine. I’ve always loved the 2000 Pichon Lalande, which for...
