Looking forward to this one. Anyone taste any of them yet?

Same day as Saxum and right before Carlisle. Yikes.

Double yikes! Also same day as Aubert.

I haven’t tasted them, but Antonio Galloni liked them a lot. The base Cab is going to be a great QPR (for Napa Cab), as always. In a strong vintage like this the entry level wines are relative deals. Oddly enough it’s often R-Ms most tightly allocated, at least for me.

Prices went up on a few of them. Will have to really think about the Lore and Panek this year. Definitely will be in for the base. Not sure about the Herb Lamb either.

Price went up on the NV and Panek. Lore and Calistoga are same as last year.

I may be wrong, but I think this is the first vintage with RM releasing a Herb Lamb.

I will be buying based on past RM enjoyment.

I look forward to other answers to your question.

Personally, it reminds me of the 2015 MACDONALD.

Turns out, pathetic threads are indeed contagious

They tend to have a common theme, too

??

Buzzkill.

Why are people so mean?

Is there a wait list for RM and how long is it? Signed up last year after buying and enjoying a 2008 and 2015 from Winebid. Haven’t received anything about upcoming offer, not even a rejection email.

I would email, i got an offer in a few months after signing up

There are just referring to my post

I deleted to avoid the conflict

I think I remember signing up late ‘15 got first offer in ‘17
