I have been gong through the early pre-offers. I assume it is prohibited to speak about specifics, but I am about to spent a lot of moola. There’s the six year syrah vertical, there’s the 8-10-12 cab vertical. There’s the food lots, of which I am focusing on at least two. There’s that weird guy I met at Falltacular. Come to think of it, two weird guys I met at Falltacular who have separate wineries.
Sojourn - a mixed case of Pinot’s (3 of each) – along with the 3 bonus bottles (15 total)
Jean Edwards - a TD and FG - 6 of the GIII’s and 3 of the Napa cabs…along with the bonus mystery bottle (10 total)
Veleta EVOO
Sojourn
EMH
Lagier Meredith
That Larry guy with the interesting white blends
The guy from Humboldt County with the herbal flavor from nearby plots
And I’m from NY, so some of the NY strip steaks are a must.
Your telling me, I am in a “no wine buying mode” but that rule was broken with a early purchase yesterday and since it isn’t a no steak buying mode I already dropped a nearly 4 figure sum at flannery in the past 24 hours!
I got the Windy Oaks offer yesterday, so I was pre-screwed before the day even began. I guess that was the pilot hole for the gaping wound in my wallet.
I love this. This is such a great opportunity to try “new to me” producers at deal prices and get some great values from old favorites. But it does add up. So far:
Keating (new to me!)(and 375s!)
Loring (unusual wines for them)
Match (sad to see them close, good deals and good wines)
EMH (new to me!)
Riverain (new to me!)
Chester’s Anvil (new to me!)
