HoosJustinG - No Response, no wine from 2012 Bollinger La Grande Annee Magnums order from 2024

I bought this wine, it was apparently sent to our house while we were traveling with no notice prior to shipment and I can’t get in touch with Justin after many emails and calls to follow up, his last response was in February. Anyone heard from him or know how to reach him directly?

I actually emailed him a couple of times in the past few weeks and haven’t heard back. I hope everything is OK with him.

There’s a phone number on his website

Unless I am doing something wrong, the website does not show any inventory.

Thanks for the tag (and texts from a few of you)

The night I returned from Bordeaux EP tastings, my young daughter disclosed that she had been sexually assaulted by a former caregiver. Since then, my energy has been consumed with protecting my kids, moving to new environments for their safety and mental health, and navigating a justice system that has been incredibly difficult for victims.

In the midst of that, I have not had the bandwidth to give proper attention to Wine World Reserve, which has always been a side project, and I regret the disruption this has caused to some.

I am stepping away from WWR, and outstanding orders will be folded into Wine World’s regular course of business. Customers will receive an email soon (likely tomorrow) with details and a point of contact at Wine World. While I’ve at times been frustrated with fulfillment by “the mothership” and expressed as much to customers, Wine World is a fantastic and trustworthy business that will absolutely make good on all outstanding orders, including ’23 and ’24 EP. They’ve been around for 20+ years, with stable leadership and finances.

On my side, I’m finally starting to come up for air … not because justice is closer, but because I can’t allow it to consume more than six months like this. I look forward to sharing some new wine-related projects in the very near future.

Deep sympathies; such a horrible thing to have happen.

Oh no, Justin. Hoping so much for healing and better things ahead for your family.

With two young daughters that’s terrifying to hear, best wishes to you and your family.

I am so sorry for you, your daughter and family.

Horrible. As a father of daughters, I can’t imagine.
