Lillian 2008 Offer Question

L_Goldsmith · June 7, 2011, 8:51pm

I personally find their wine well worth the price. Just had an 07 (thanks Freed) that was great.

Also, at a 3 bottle allocation, this was one of the cheaper wine orders I have placed lately.

If anyone is looking to share, split, or pass, please drop me a PM.

Thanks

I too would like to buy or share someon’e allocation.

Chris_Blum · June 8, 2011, 4:08pm

Were allocations down slightly this year?

Ed_Murray · June 8, 2011, 4:14pm

I think they were about the same. I’ve been on the list since the 2nd offering and My allocation was unchanged except I was offered an extra Blue Label 750 and a Blue Label mag.

Per_Backman · June 8, 2011, 4:21pm

edit: doubled everything except blue label mag (still 1)

L_Goldsmith · June 8, 2011, 4:45pm

Still got three. Its just that its now a combo of 2x Syrah and 1x Blue Label instead of Syrah only.

Sean_Moore · June 8, 2011, 4:46pm

I’m of a similar opinion and bought again without hesitation.

T_Schaffler · June 11, 2011, 4:28am

Any sharing?

Per_Backman · June 21, 2011, 11:41am

Went almost all in! I have a kinda special situation being in Sweden otherwise I would’ve shared the bottles I didn’t buy (6 reg 750ml).

Bought 6 reg 08s, 2 mags, 6 blue label 07s and 1 mag.

L_Goldsmith · July 16, 2011, 3:07am

Got an email today that they were able to fill my wish request which turned out to be another 3 pack.

Bob_Davis · July 17, 2011, 11:28am

Same here. Only the 2008 Regular Syrah.

Interesting i didn’t get the email, and i thought i missed it, so i logged in and i was good to go. My favorite syrah.

Russ_Schultz · August 7, 2011, 9:34pm

Glad I read this board because I didn’t get an email either so when I read some of you had an allocation but got no email notifying you of such, I logged in and I too had an allocation! Ordered today!

Rowen_Bell · August 23, 2011, 2:40pm

I got an email from Lillian today for the first time. I had signed up for the waiting list not that long ago, maybe in late 2010, and today I received a 3-bottle offer on the 2008 regular.

William_Segui · August 23, 2011, 2:50pm

Anyone know when this ships?

Chad_Richardson · August 23, 2011, 2:51pm

Same here. I think we’re batting clean-up, but there’s nothing wrong with that. I hadn’t expected an offer this soon, so pleasantly surprised.
Has anyone tasted the 2008? There are no notes on CT, though a few dozen bottles claim to already be in-stock.

Chris_S_p_i_k_e_s · August 23, 2011, 3:00pm

All gone. Man, that was quick! Oh well, there’s always next year.

Chris

Chad_Richardson · August 23, 2011, 3:06pm

Try again. I just ordered with no problem.

Lon_Snider · August 23, 2011, 3:38pm

Will,
October 31 or later depending on the weather.
