I was offered my usual Cailloux and BF, but also a Widowmaker 3-pack. Curious as I didn’t wish, but I’ll give it a try.

I picked up a 3-pack of Armada and wished for Frog. This will be my second purchase. Any idea of how many rounds I’ll be going before Frog wish list will be granted?
I was offered the Frog on my eighth year on the list. I think that’s fairly typical from what I hear.

I believe it was 6 years for me, but that was a while back.

My first order was processed in 2016. That makes my 2022 order number 7.
Every year since I got on the mailing list, I’ve wished for everything in their lineup. Each year it seems I get something new. Today, I got an email saying my request for BF was granted, but nothing else… So if my math is correct, that is 7 years to get the Frog.
These orders are getting costly…
Armada
GOK
The Lovers
WW Special Mag
BF
Camaspello
Cailloux
Impulsivo
Are the Pig and Widow Maker both generally longer than the BF?

Received my Wish List of Frog today. I’ve been active on the list for 8 years.

Looks like I landed both the WWS Tempranillo and WWS Cabernet Sauvignon. Seeing as how these were Wish List only, I suspect I will be joined by many others on the board as having these requests fulfilled. Will be interesting to give these a try!

Wish list granted for the magnum (for some reason I dropped that last go around) and the 2015 WW special cab. Still waiting on the pig.

IIRC - Flying Pig has the smallest number of cases produced year in and year out

My info is a bit dated I think, but FP, Widowmaker, and the Lovers were the three lowest productions of the red lineup (the Rose and Viognier were lower). My favorite of those three is Flying Pig by far – which might be shared by others, and which might then explain the relative difficulty of getting it. Just for the record I gave up my allocation of Flying Pig (6 bottles) a few years ago – I am sure someone else is enjoying them as much as I did (and still do, as I have a good deal of older vintages still!)

Curious what prices are on the current wines are? I buy all my Cayuse at auction or at local wine shops and always seem to beat the cellar tracker average.

Bionic frog is 115. Armada is 94. The other syrahs are 84.
Just got hit with shipping for the latest shipment to NY for 7 -3 packs for $230 a total or over $10/bottle.
What gives? Seems excessive.

Are you sure that was just for the shipping or is it the shipping + tax - which is what I think I’m being charged for now.

Tax brings the total into the $400s.
Just shipping for 21 bottles.
I was charged shipping and sales tax totaling $169 for 6 bottles. The actual shipping is $16 a bottle. They
wait to calculate sales tax since those of us in Ohio also pay sales tax on the shipping cost.
