No Napa cabs - Kind of done most of them. Too much candy.
Other Pinot Producers - Too much candy
keeping Rhys, only one I am on, though I keep getting Red Car offers but have not bought from them since Mark Estrin died.

Keeping:
Dehlinger

I’ve dropped more than I can remember over the years. I think I’ve found my ‘keepers’ giving me a good variety, but a focus on pinot and zin.

This list is pretty trimmed down. Noticed a few missing from this list.
Tim, it’s probably going down further. But any winery where have variable experience with the wines did get dumped and so did a few where costumer service became an issue.
Otoh I bought another case of 2010 CdP that should come tomorrow ![[cheers.gif]](/uploads/db3686/original/2X/0/0ff9bfcdb0964982cd3240b6159868fbdf215b1a.gif "cheers"){kind=small}
Steady and loyal:
Williams-Selyem (never see these on the shelf anywhere, and if I do, they are 2x direct prices. . . and I love them 
)
Turley (shipping is cheap and I don’t see many of these around, especially not for direct pricing. . . . and my wife LOVES them)
Added:
Maison Ilan
Kutch
On the list, but don’t always buy (or just buy 1 or 2 btls):
Sea Smoke
Failla
Anthill Farms
Arista (shipping is killer!)
Martinelli (shipping is killer!)
Kongsaard
T.R. Elliott
Waiting for an allocation (at which point I’ll decide to buy or not):
Rhys
Rochioli
Kosta Browne
Carlisle
Wineries I like, but force you to buy a case or more (so I don’t buy any):
Juslyn
Kistler
Keeping them all, at least for another year
Rhys, Kutch, Bedrock, SQN, Rivers Marie, Saxum
Added:
Schrader
Recently dropped:
Scholium (love the white whites)
Wish I could get:
Maison Ilan (buying at retail)
On: Windy Oaks
And just added Failla
Just emailed Rhys and Maison Ilan
Passed on my allocation of Quilceda Creek in January (we rarely drink cab. based wines so still have plenty in the cellar.)
Still get a post card once a year from Cayus
Don’t intend to add anything else.
Can’t subtract from zero, so won’t be dropping any, and I don’t plan to add any either
Chuck Norris can divide by zero.
Chuck Norris made the zero empty in the middle
Based on what I skipped this spring (Rhys, Anthill) I guess I am now only on Arnot-Roberts and Wind Gap. We’ll see what happens in the fall.
Leaving: Big Basin, Rudius
Falling: Williams-Selyem, Peay, Wind Gap, Outpost
Holding steady: Carlisle, Rhys, Bedrock
Rising: Rasa
Adding: Keplinger
Hello David
I just sent over an email to you. Thanks again for your interest! Let me know if you need anything.
Cheers
Ray
Dropped a couple and added Maison Ilan. I am still on a few but that number is dwindling.
JD
That is the only one I’m adding. I am off all others. As John said, so many of my list purchases are gathering dust somewhere. I also end up seeing too many on Winebid at less than half the price. I don’t think a lot of the three tier system, but the list (especially the forced buy or be dropped kind) is not a great alternative, either.
