@Jeff Bloom

After buying 10 to 15 offers in each of the past 4 years, I’m going to have to miss the fun this year. Getting a new hip on preview day and recovering in the hospital on BerserkerDay itself. At least my credit card will get some needed rest.

I’d like to see more everyday whites offered on BerserkerDay. Last year, I purchased Liquid Farm (not an every day drinker at the price), Seven of Hearts, and Cellars 33. I wouldn’t mind seeing more white wines in the $15 - $25 range. I never seem to have enough of them.

Yep. I’m 37% over-capacity on storage so probably only whites for me this year.

I’ve setup the BerserkerDay VII participants group again this year, so any retailer or winery who wishes to participate who did NOT receive my PM yesterday, let me know via PM and I’ll add you to the group.

Here I am sitting in our apartment in Buenos Aires with two VinGardeValise wine suitcases full of wine ready for our return to the U.S. just in time for Berserker Day. What a conundrum. Where am I going to put it all? We have been gone for 7 weeks so my cellar has not be thinned at all for almost 2 months. Ah well, it is winter so everything should be fine until I drink down the cellar.

Looking forward to it.

BTW: Found some very good wines in Uruguay and Mendoza. Bringing back wines that can’t be purchased in the U.S. at least not yet or some library wines from wineries that do export. Such fun.

What were the good Uruguayan ones? We have some friends from there, who I’m sure would love to hear about it (me to, tho they are probably not obtainable here).

Did you go to Navarro Correas in Mendoza by any chance?

Oh good, then I won’t ban him.

Now…less talk of Rhys, more talk of BerserkerDay!

Yeah, looks like no Cabernet lovers left hanging around here.

Well, I have a three bottle package and another offering, plus an auction item, so we are getting ready to go. Wines selected? Check. Pricing sketched in and tightened up to ensure good values for those Cabernet lovers? Check. Web guy waiting for instructions and cleared his day to man the server? Check. Daughter looking to help mom for her second BerserkerDay? Check.

So is Gronk coming to work as your stock boy?

[cepotts]

I copied that from the web site, but also received the 1/19 offer today, so not sure what happened. My visa will be in pain either way.

[Dennis_Kanagie]

My hope is that my 4th quarter bonus from last year arrives before Berserker Day.

Where’s the “finger’s crossed” smiley?

No, Rob has a game on the 24th. It would be too hard on him. And he has to stay home to take care of those kittens.

C’mon Merrill, give us a hint on what your offer will be…please.
