Nope, he simply didn’t offer it to new members. Would you have preferred that with Pali?
Um… you missed the boat on the quotations making it look like I said something I didn’t… 
No no, I just messed up my quotes, making it look like I was replying to you. Sorry Ed. (fixed)

…uhhh…actually Kevin did offer Chard to new members… I bought the '04 vintage Chard, which shipped in '06, and I think that was pretty early in the game…
…and he did NOT ask me to buy anything else to get it…
…and excuse me, but what does this have to do with the Pali offer…???

04 was the first vintage. After 04 (and the good scores), it was not allocated to new members. (low production, couldn’t give it to everyone). Go read the Rhys thread. Lots of posts from people who didn’t get the Chard.
uh oh, the Rhys e-mail just hit - WINE TALK - WineBerserkers" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The reality is, you saw Pali 96 points, and are pissed you couldn’t cherry pick. No sympathy. And no, I have no vested interest in Pali. Never met them, not on their list, tried a couple of their wines and liked them.

You brought up Rhys, not me.
Scott…Ed brought up Rhys…not you…or me…too many quotes going…
…either way…not pissed, not sure where you get that…I stated above, I don’t buy off the list, pick up a few at retail, so would not expect any privileges. I saw the score in WS, was curious as to how they would handle purchases, got the email, was surprised because I do not believe that Pali has ever bundled/hostaged anything before…that’s all…simple…I still hope Tim sells every dang bottle, I said that already too…
Couldn’t agree more. Just dislike this type of sales offering and would not bite.
I don’t know if it is appropraite to post this here, but you can buy the 2008 Pali Durell Pinot from me for $45, $243 for six
And I have a lot of it being delivered in early October
Are you a retailer? Should probably put itb in your signature
Yes he is…in Nashville,TN (sorry Hoyt, cant remember the name of your place off the top of my head)
