I ended up ordering a case, too.
Today’s PN offer to me was a great chance to compare WT vs Cam X. I almost bit on Cam X lot 66 PN yesterday, but I was very happy paying double to buy a known wine with published 95/96 scores. I think the Cam X will be really good, but with space at a premium, the WT offer is better value to me.
Any thoughts on today’s offer? I’ve been a fan of this is the past, but I’ve heard there were big changes at Beau Vigne. I’ve also heard the white labels are still good while the black labels are mass market crap made for Costco. Curious if anyone can confirm.
So it seems like WT has becoming a clearance site for defunct wineries. Lavinea and tekstura being the primary ones. The first Lavinea PN was an amazing deal at $30/btl, yesterday’s was shockingly good at $20. The tekstura albarino is very good and looks like it has upside with some age. I guess I’ll just keep hanging out in this chat by myself, but these are the best deals I’m seeing out there right now.

Have you tried the Tekstura Albarino? I put a bottle in the refrigerator over the weekend, but haven’t had a chance to try it, yet.
I had it last night as a matter of fact. It’s not a showstopper, but I really like it. It was also better on night two so I suspect it will improve a bit with age and be good for at least five more years.
2023 Bedrock Dolinsek for only $2 above mailing list price. I bought off the mailing list otherwise this would be a no brainer.
Anyone else bite on the Fogarty Pinots? I couldn’t pass at $20 when I bought the first case at $30. The Tekstura PN over the weekend seemed like a great deal for anyone who isn’t drowning in WT pinots already.
Too bad this group doesn’t have a bigger following. It would be great if someone bought the Italian mystery in December and could tell us what it was. The 97 points from JD is enticing, but I’d at least need to know the varietal.

I agree it seemed sure to be a barolo and I don’t drink a lot of barolo. If they really start offering wines below there past offers this week that could get really interesting. Certainly a great price on today’s cab.

I finally had to unsubscribe. The number of text messages and emails every day were just too much and, in my opinion, the deals were not that great.
