A shipping status you don't want to see

WINE TALK

Got a shipping update today…not one I was excited to see. Luckily the product is replaceable, so I just have to wait a bit for my package. [oops.gif]

OOPS! That’s a rough one Sean!

#4

But it arrived the next day! Notes of diesel, gravel, and pitch?

#5

I had that happen with a Siduri shipment. Luckily, the wine was fine and was only delayed about a day or two. But, I was worried when I saw that shipping update.

#6

That wasn’t mine, I just remembered seeing it posted a while back and grabbed it off of Google images :wink:

Still, definitely a status I wouldn’t want to see!

#7

We were fortunate that even a well-trained palate didn’t notice any damage.

Better than being consolidated by a man in Beaune

#9

Sounds like an older Burgundy. neener

#10

I had a train derailment one last year in California that delayed my wine 10 days.

#11

If trains derailed as often as threads around here did, nobody would get anything ever.

#12

Delivered

Only to come home and find nothing.

#13

Ditto!

#14

That reminds me of a story I heard that has nothing to do with wine but it does involve a train. There was this lady who had a dog, and one day…

#15

It’s almost as tragic as a ship with Pingus sinking. Wait, didn’t that also happen to a ship carrying Mateus Rosé?

#16

What’s funny is it happens often enough they programmed a shipping status category for train derailment. I wonder what else is pre-programmed in.
