SunBreak
Sandar & Hem
Six Cloves
Lagier Meredith
Goodfellow
Red Newt

Looks like it’s going to be Newbie Friday
(I know, I always say I’m going to buy less, but these deals are amazing!)

Sheila calls those purchases “a Thursday”.
Always a berserker rock star!

Jealous - solid list!
I ended up going with just a case of Goodfellow this year. I hope by next BD I’ll finally have my storage situation worked out and I’ll be able to indulge in many more offers.

Hi there. I’m quite new to the wine scene, having been primarily a whiskey drinker, and in early exploration my favorites have been Silver Oak Cab and a Wellington Port; I think these opinions may make me an abomination to fancy wine folk. 
If y’all would humor me, does anyone recall if there were any Port offers in last year’s BD? I tried to search the previous BD threads (BD13, linked in top post here) for port but was thwarted by the search feature surfacing only instances of ‘support’ as far as i could read.
If there are any purveyors of port for which I should be on the lookout tomorrow, I’d appreciate the direction. (Not looking for any Preview Day info, as I know that’s for members - just trying to get a sense of whether port is as…eccentric, might be the kindest word, as I’ve gathered it might be among wine enthusiasts, or if it’s a fairly regular part of the landscape.)

Today I’m in for a case of Goodfellow, a case of Vincent, and a three pack of grower Champagne from Stereophonic, with (hopefully) two more purchases tomorrow.
Thanks @ToddFrench for putting this all together. It was great fun, and it’s not over yet!

Tick Tock, GCC and MC members - about one more hour before all the Early Purchase Offers (and access to the Preview forum) goes away for ‘housecleaning’ in preparation for the onslaught tomorrow!
I’m on deck! Mope up a few auction items and make my shopping list for tomorrow. 
Finishing the dishes and a glass of Sandar Chardonnay.
Houston, we’re clear to launch!

Good day. I went for:
Stereophonic
Lagier-Meredith
Goodfellow
Santa Cruz Mountains
Wineco Yeah
Shiba Wichern
Maitre de Chai
Forgotten Union
Tomorrow I’m hoping to have the time to get some:
Patricia Green
Fine Disregard
Orr
Suzor (was hoping to see the Gamay there as it was so nice, but prob sold out).
and maybe a few others, like Scherrer and some of the slew of Oregon newbies. If anyone has any recommends on some lighter Cabs without too much oak influence, I’d be interested in that.

Moderation for me, talked myself out of a lot of purchases. Still ended up with
Flannery, two orders
Stereophonic
Jean Edwards
Looking forward to tomorrow’s offers.

Prima Materia uses 3-4yo Hungarian oak for their Cab but I’ve not personally tried it. @Pietro_B might be able to give you a better idea.
Where is Stereophonic champagne?
It was in the Monopole Cru forum, only visible/available to that group

Todd, after BD14 is done and dusted will you tell everyone what they missed in monopole cru as an incentive to upgrade next year?
