How is that possible? Doesn’t open until January 22.
Clearly, a fait accompli.
In the main, I’d say you’re correct.
Gotta hand it to you, this thread was fated to turn out punny.
I believe that the allocation system is somewhat similar to Myriad. Previous Buyers (or something along those lines) get it a week in advance, while the normal allocations are released next week.
I wouldn’t worry too much. The wines are in demand, but not to the degree Mikes are where they sell out in hours.
It’s a cabernet. Yur gonna luv it! 
So a Fait in the Main is worth 2 in the bush? Is that why there’re 3 threads?

WTF - I responded to this and actually included a response about the winemaker…how the hell many of these threads are there?!
Are you guys nuts? I spent less than that on my last bottle of Bartolo.
This going to get very confusing once they decide to combine the threads. ![[berserker.gif]](/uploads/db3686/original/2X/8/8600bbd4810d342b8fbd4ffb62b4f0026275fd37.gif "berserker"){kind=small}
In a warm welcome to all new Berserker signups you are wondering what they got themselves into. Time to move on, folks.
All I know is that it is dead at retail
Whatever you do, don’t cross the threads, 'cause, as I understand it, then major cosmic disruption occurs.
Was it ever born at retail?
but a dream at retail
The web site prominently features this quote from the winemaker:
I don’t want anything handed to me, I want to take it. It’s only when you push yourself to the edge that you find out what you are truly capable of.
Hmm…sounds like he could be taking a page from the (best-selling) book of another Board favorite?
I suppose the only real question is where someone fits on a pivot table that will say publicly that they like this wine/purchased this wine and is also enough of an influencer to justify my purchase of the wine.
An old favorite. RIP, Mr Eden.
