I’m still undecided, but leaning yes. I’m tasting at Palisades canyon and MOWE later this week and hopefully this allocation will still be available by the weekend so I can make an informed choice.

And the magnums are gone…
The magnums of our 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon are now sold out. We are so grateful for the strong response to this never-to-be-repeated blend. We invite you to click below to access your allocation of 750ml three-packs.
Customers who acquire this release will have a guaranteed allocation of the smaller 2021 vintage (307 cases) and priority access to magnums.
Interesting piece of data not in the original offer email

I emailed Jack earlier and that’s the same information he gave me too.
Feels like we’re going to get dropped if we pass on this release unfortunately.
Yeah, i picked up on that too. Comes across like they’re trying create FOMO, to me at least. I bought the '19 but remain firm on passing on the '20. If i don’t get an allocation for '21, no big deal. There are plenty of other top tier wines out there.

This is my first offering so there’s a good chance I’ll get none of 001 Vintners at this point because I plan on passing these '20’s.
I believe this release is around 500 cases so a pretty big increase for this vintage only.
Back to 307 cases for the '21’s.

I’m in same boat. Sucks that I haven’t had my ‘19s shipped yet so no opportunity to taste

Some of the 19’s tasting notes on CT are not terrific. I’m passing on 20’s but will hopefully be having an allocation for 21’s.

Did they delay shipping of the 19’s or are you just delaying your shipping?
Cheers
Went ahead and took a 3pk. And knowing how good the 21 was compare to a few other 21s I’ve tasted, I definitely want some in my cellar.

I got the same impression - which makes sense considering they have more to sell in '20 but likely less demand

I’m in Texas. Window isn’t open yet. Don’t recall when ‘19 was released but it has been hot

That makes sense. Can’t ship anything here in south Texas after mid March.
Excellent notes, Anthony. My impressions were very similar. Mostly, I was surprised at how good the 2020 was.
Still undecided. If someone in the DMV area wants a bottle or two at cost, would split my allocation with them. Would help save both of our wallets. Pm me if interested
I’m the one low outlier on CT, but it still has a 94.9 average, with 77% of people scoring it at least 95 points. How much more terrific would you expect the notes to be?

Did MacDonald release a 2020? Did anyone who sources from Ecotone release a 2020?
I’ll probably buy again although my '19 hasn’t shipped yet. Happy to split the allocation with anyone in S. FL.
I decided to take a 3 PK. Two good vineyards, good maker / consultant / owner. Hopefully they would not release a sub par product and ruing their very young reputation.
