Yeah. But then again I looked at my purchasing history and I think this may be their first price increase since 2015.

I waited on the list too long not to buy but definitely a smaller order than anticipated.
i think your right. justin has a lot of real estate to pay for.
im confident we wonāt see subsequent increases for at least a few more years (excluding the winter release no doubt).
Iāve been buying from a friend while I wait on the list (should finally make it in the next offering or two, I love these wines), but the price difference between the non-extended barrel age offerings and the extended barrel age offerings has really narrowed.

one thing to consider- wineries like law, torrin, jacob toft, top, lāaventure, pec & burl, emercy, levo etc. gotta love this as the pace setter for the race just decided to slow down, so to speak.

$75 in '08, $89 in '10, $98 from about '13-'21. And includes shipping. So they were quite overdue. I had recently commented that with the stable pricing it was almost a āvalueā wine by CA standards. Sorry, i jinxed it.

I was expecting an increase but not 35%ā¦
Surprised Justin increased some of these by that much given you can now backfill some in the secondary market for cheaper than list ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ

Is shipping still included? You have to figure that into the equation - those costanhave increased a lot over the past 2 years . . .
Thatās interesting - I thought these held up in price pretty nicely in the secondary market - or is that not the case?
Cheers

Side question but relevant: How is the 2020 vintage in Paso Robles regarded? the area has been on a great run the last few years.

Has anyone heard from Saxum or Justin about this price increase? Would be great if he would come on here or somewhere and publically comment about it. 35 percent seems awfully high at one time.
