Mostly agree. It’s more like Maggie’s Lillian. I would rate them this way:
SQN
Saxum
Alban
Lillian
Andremily
Stan -
happy to trade some Saxum for Andremily if interested
Jeff
Out of Andremily(just had 1 bottle of the '12).
Interesting … I would rate them this way
SQN (by a mile)
Saxum
Andremily (closing fast)
Lillian (still in the backstretch)
Sorry cannot get the horse race analogies out of a KY boy.
I emailed Rachael & Jim & They said they will ship to CA next week if weather permits.
Charles
We are pretty close (not a huge shock)
SQN by a fraction of a mile (i think Andremily at year 5 will be closer than today)
Saxum JBV
Andremily (though 14 components in barrel are amazing so could rise)
Rest of Saxum
Alban
Lillian (04-07 higher)
Get out to wine country with your beautiful wife and we will drink them all!
Question for those who got allocations, when did you sign up?
Immediately.
+1
So I signed up in August 2014. Did I miss out by weeks, months or years?
if my memory is correct, weeks or less
I emailed on 8/9/14.
first release letter was 7 August 2014
I got on the list 6 Aug 2014
I understand that within a 24 hour period, Jim & Rachel received 2000 or so requests to be added to the mailing list. I believe production ramps up a bit with the 2014 vintage, but I have to think it will be a number of years for many to get an allocation here.
I signed up on 8/6/2014 @0436 PM.
1st year on the list. Shipping confirmation to CO yesterday. 2 boxes for 6 bottles? Can a previous buyer weigh-in…Are these individually packed 3-packs? Cardboard? Wood? Just curious.
These are shipped in three bottle parcels, where each one is a cardboard box, no wood.
My allocation was delivered to SoCal today! Can’t wait to drink one
My second year on the list and was lucky. First year got 3 and my wishlist for 3 was granted. This year got 6 and my wishlist for additional 3 and mag was granted. I like this trend…
