when bad things happen to good wine

Just received a 4 pack from a seller in CA.
They used a damaged second hand shipper with a nice hole in the styro.
Luckily only one of the 4 bottles froze. 07 J M Boillot Batard Montrachet.

going back to Laguna…

Outstanding.

Yikes, Suzanne! Sorry to hear/see it!

Did you contact the seller and are you getting a refund?

That’s what you get for trusting those freaks in CA.

getting a refund but the poor bottle has to go back west…It’s not leaking yet but I am sure it will be by the time it gets to Laguna Beach.

Ouch! That’s horrible! At least it sounds like you and the seller came to some sort of amicable compromise. [welldone.gif]

Well, I’m about 3 miles south of Laguna Beach, so if you need me to, um, influence the seller a bit, I’m game!

You may also want to tell them that you got Jean Marc Boillot, not Henri Boillot!

Good point Daniel.
Jean Marc is what I purchased.

Total bummer. Hate those frozen bottles. Happened to me once, with screw caps – it was difficult to tell it had occurred, since the bottles were liquid by the time they got to Houston. The top of the screw cap was slightly rounded instead of flat.

Shame on such a tasty wine!

Just trying to help, Suzanne.

No bashing.

Just me being nice.

It does not happen often

That will cost you next time!
