Another beggar here, stuck on the waitlist. If anyone's passing, I'll gladly buy some in your place

Thanks to the Berserkers who offered to hook me up!

Can anyone offer guidance on the different pinots? Definitely interested in a 3-pack, but not sure which would be best for my palette. Jason, Do you prefer Volnay or Gevrey? Please rank which appeals most to least to you: High toned perfumes, rich and mouth-filling, solid structure. This will help ...

Order in for the vertical. Very excited -- thanks for the offer!

Hi Charlie. Doesn't look like the free shipping is applying properly with the code, at least on the 2016. I placed an order anyhow, will DM to work through it but wanted to let you know here as well.

I grew up in Chicago. To this day I go back home to visit and order a hot dog with ketchup-only at Portillos. Deal with it =)

btw, meatloaf sandwich is great with some basil pesto!

Has anyone had them ship to Washington? They dont have it listed but was under the impression it was a fairly open state as far as wine shipping went? Thanks! I've bought directly from them and had it shipped to Washington -- they use a 3rd party for shipping (I believe you effectively "take p...

We really enjoyed our experience at Tantalus when we were there, and stayed at MudBrick. Agree with Jim that none of the wine blew us away, but the trip was great and the area beautiful.

Some good olive oil and honey out that way as well.

Absolutely. The oeufs plats are the only thing I've ever had there -- it's so good!

Saw some this weekend in the Seattle area...

Agree, it's a gorgeous drive. We took that route out to Darby, MT, after a stay at Abeja in Walla Walla.

Love the oeufs plats there for breakfast. Been practicing making them at home the past few days -- still not the same.

Seattle is definitely friendly/used to folks bringing their own wine. Expect corkage fee of $25-$30. As far as restaurant recommendations, depends on what part of town you'll be in? Downtown, east side, etc... Lots of good options for food though, no matter where you are.

Years back. Corliss red blend 24.97 bought 18 bottles was all they had. Delicious wine.

That is a steal. Nice find!

(next time text me and let me know so I can get in on it!

Yes, received Friday.

Same here (Seattle). Finally showed up after a shipping delay in Oregon due to weather.

I've started to prepare my wife for the reality of a steady stream of wine deliveries over the next 3 months. Last year she was on a first name basis with the UPS and FedEx delivery folks. This is why we have offsite wine storage. They sign for all the deliveries, and storage is in my name, so my S...

Stopped thinking and went in for a Red Chip. Time to put the credit card down and step away from the computer

In for the "Place". Thanks!

I'm in for a 3-pack.
