Wait list times

[Jeremy Charmak]

Anyone have an idea about Lillian Winery?

[Craig G]

Anyone know the wait time on Tusk? or is it referral only?

Why don’t you ask him what’s going on

[Aleks V]

This thread has made me sign up for Ultramarine and SQN. See you in 9 years!

Does Ceritas have a wait? I have been buying for a few years now and want to feel special.

IIRC Ceritas (along with Carlisle, Williams Selyem, Turley, and maybe 1-2 others) has a wait list in that when you sign up they tell you that you are on a wait list but in practice it’s only until the next allocation. I signed up for Ceritas in Jan, was told I was on the wait list and got an April allocation.

I assume this allows wineries to claim to have a waitlist when they don’t really have one in practice.

Sandlands has to be a couple out right?

Had my sister sign up before the Spring release and she made the leftover offering then, with an actual offering on the recent one (though not many wines available)

[Sjmotta]

I responded to the original sign-up email from Next Of Kyn in 2010 about two hours after it hit my inbox... I received first allocation in 2019.

I have let more than half of my mailing lists go! I still get some Turley, Bedrock (where I think increased sourcing and production has balanced out the waiting list issue... and they are terrific folks), Under the Wire, Myriad, Saxum, Hirsch, Torrin, Daou, and Sojourn. I think that Saxum is quite clearly an excellent producer and has been very careful about price-point not getting out of hand as opposed to others I see above that have gotten crazy, and I stopped buying already. Mike Smith and Myriad same thing... especially based upon quality! Daou has a great sense of marketing and pricing. Torrin remains a wonderful value in pricing. And, I have terrific pricing and availability thru Jim Nejaime/Spirited Wines in Lenox MA particularly with regard to all of the international wines I purchase.

So much of the wine I like requires age (my palate), at this point I stay on the mailing lists my son has great interest in! It is funny following wineries on instagram and seeing that my son has already reacted to wine postings before I can get there!

Anyone has any knowledge regarding Andremily?

[Betty C]

That’s a quick one. I think I got an allocation the following release after I signed up.

[Alex N]

I signed up 3/2018 and got an offer 5/2020

[Nicholas C]

12/2017 sign up and 5/2020 first email and offer from them for their new EABA wine.

[GregT]

How long for Godot?

We’ll probably kick the Beckett first.

[Christian Obermanns]

Rhys is 1 year as of yesterday when I signed up.

[A.G. EVERETT]

My advice to the newbies - sign up for everything with a long waiting list. By the time you get an offer, maybe you will know whether you like the wine. DO NOT sign up for every list where there is currently no wait. You will feel like a heavy hitter and buy too much wine too fast. Been there, done that.

Nailed it

[SeanHarding]

Regarding Ultramarine, I have no data on what the current wait is. But they seem to not be very aggressive about kicking people off, because I think I last bought from them in 2016, and got (and bought) an allocation this year.

Yes
The wines are great though. We had an ‘11 Gold Label a few weeks ago; it was spectacular

[Bret D!sk!n]

I signed up for Ultramarine in September 2018. Got an email today saying that there is an allocation for me tomorrow. Not sure how complete it will be but I'm happy with 2 years!

Me too. I actually received an offer for the first release but did not buy and either got dropped or unsubscribed, not really sure at this point. But I am in and will buy now.

[Gus Siokis]

Piggybacking on Bret's comment....I signed up for Ultramarine in October 2018 and also received an email for an allocation!

[FMansfield]

Riverain. Sign up now or miss the boat.

Exactly...will def be allocation by next year. I got a 3 pack of the Reserve

[FMansfield]

SE not even mentioned.....

Interesting. I signed up in October 2016 and didn't get an offer. I got the update/dosage trial email back in June but that's it. Maybe I'll email them or maybe I am saving myself from over purchasing.

Maybe I missed it in this thread, what is the Aubert wait time?

See my note in the UM thread, they had me marked as passing last year so I got dropped. A quick email fixed it.

[AlexCWu]

Aubert is 1-2 years? I signed up in early 2018, got a tie-you-over mini offer of 2-3 bottles in the following month and start regular allocations by 2019.

Signed in on March 2016...nothing here. I also contacted them last year to check but there was nothing for me

Perhaps there are separate waiting lists for Europeans.

[JohnP]

Very curious on Tusk, can anyone comment on how they got onto the list? Also, what the recent cost was per bottle, have a feeling online pricing is inflated, or maybe not?

I’m not on the list but I did see a local retailer offering the 2016 at $675/per.

Anyone know about the length of the waitlist for Dalla Valle?
