Tempting wine purchases you’ve passed on—give others a shot

2013 LDH Tondonia Reserva Blanco at Binny’s Rockford & Willowbrook for $49.99. If I was local I’d be all over that.

Helen’s (LA) and Vino Carta (San Diego) have decent pricing on the lower end Les Horees wines

For those of you who aren’t aware, thatchers has 15% off 6+ bottles today. I went for salon mags but the prelat presle looks like a really great deal if you want grower fizz.

Restocked some Eglys for a great price :+1:

Whwc sale is pretty good. 09 mg ruchottes isn’t a bad price.

That’s an oxymoron these days.

Haha, sad but true.

It’s been awhile since I checked out Vivino (hellacious customer service episode last year, still having pings of anxiety over it), bopped over there this morning to see what’s what.

Two offerings really stood out:

2019 Fidelitas Quintessence Cab Sauv @ $24.99

2021 Gamba Zin Messana Vnyd @ $24.99

Lopa has Filaine, both DMY and Cuvée Speciale, for nice prices.

Lopa is an email? Not seeing anything on their website

Almost all the good stuff from Lopa is an email offer. Very little makes it to the website.

I asked Scott if he knew the vintages (says it’s the 2025 release), he was going to try finding out.

It’s very hard with Filaine. My understanding is Fabrice disgorges kind of on demand, or when he needs to, with no regular timeline, and not even the importer knows what’s in the bottle some of the time. I never worry about it with DMY.
