I love shipping season, just wish I had more room. Wine cellar plans are in the works just waiting on some timing and $$$ issues.

Sure there are ones im forgetting
Shipping season will complete the consolidation of the storage (multiple boxes arrive). Add about 1 year of purchases that I held back from delivery and I need to take a day or two off to sort the boxes.
The storage probably goes… ‘what’s going on?!?’ 7 boxes waiting plus two on the way.
Some highlights:
2014 Jean Edwards Cellars Sauvignon Blanc Dalla Gasperina Vineyard+ 2013 Jean Edwards Cab
2013 and 2014 Becklyn Cellars (Cabs and SB)
2013 Rhys Pinot Noir Alpine Vineyard, Rhys Chards (both vineyards)
2011 and 2013 EMH Cabernet Sauvignon Black Cat
2013 Fisher Vineyards Chardonnay Whitney’s Vineyard
2012 M. Chapoutier (Le Méal, Blanc Le Méal,Blanc De L’Orée, Blanc l’Ermite,l’Ermite, Le Pavillon… I think I stocked too many on those)
2011 and 2012 Château Smith Haut Lafitte
2011 (and some delayed 2008) Domaine Taupenot-Merme Mazoyères-Chambertin
2007 Château Boswell Chardonnay True Course
Few old good cabs that finally made their way to east coast storage (Mondavi from the '80s, RS from the '80s, Montelena from the '70s)
of course, some bubbles arrive as well (that I won’t think be a long term problem)
2010 Piollot Champs Rayés Extra Brut
2010 Piollot Cuvée Val Colas Robin Extra Brut
2004 Moët & Chandon Grand Vintage Brut Rosé
1998 Gosset Celebris Extra Brut
Of course, some Pierre Paillard
Guess I’d have alot of storage sorting work…
Hmm I guess because I was busy with selling/buying home and moving I didn’t buy anything this summer. I have 0 coming this fall.
It’s briefly disappointing but actually surprisingly liberating as well…
(I did buy cayuse but that ain’t coming for another year and half).
It’s been nerve wracking as the bottles keep coming in and piling up.
Fortunately I’ve been having a lot of wine dinners recently so it’s made a small dent.
I decided yesterday that I’d buy no more wine this year and was talked into splitting a half case of 2014 Briords last night.
There are also some wines on winebid that I’d love to reload on after tasting them…

Thank you for starting this thread!!! I freaked out this weekend when I realized I no longer have room for ANY MORE wine – and now I see that my buying problem is MINUSCULE in comparison to all of you! (I think this totals about 3 cases)
So far I’ve received (note: some of this is from a recent trip west and not from mailing lists):
Corison
Kutch
Hirsch
Bedrock
Hope & Grace
Anxiously awaiting:
Dirty & Rowdy (two separate shipments, i think)

About 40 bottles in the still waiting list above. Which isn’t much but still enough to make me start rethinking the organization of my off-site 
Just had Copain, Denner, and A Tribute to Grace show up in my office today. My wine collection is . . . not exactly a tribute to grace at the moment.
Dude, your wife not only supports you buying all this stuff, but she let’s you make wine in your damn kitchen, too. She is a SAINT! Love Mrs Counselor.
Copain came last week, Kutch arrived today, Pisoni comes tomorrow.
I get excited just reading what everyone has coming! This thread is a wine-geek’s heaven. I am a wine geek, too! Brought home 17 bottles from Copain’s nicely done open house on Sunday. Took around a case of Champagne from, yes, Premier Cru.
Have some Ceritas on order, and maybe a bottle of LaRue. Need to get over to Red Car - their Ritchie Chardonnay is worth a drive.
And now for the commercial pitch: Don’t scale back on EMH for next year! I have a new and very special bottling in the works.

Oh, and Maison Ilan ![[rofl.gif]](/uploads/db3686/original/2X/a/a7452fcd8e675af869f8da01174474a545b03944.gif "rofl"){kind=small}
You are weak.
Good decision though.
UPS and GSO delivered Kutch and tercero today.
Didn’t want to leave FedEx out, so they are delivering something tomorrow.
Wine purchasing advice from my friendly UPS driver:
“I have a lady on my route who buys lots of wine through Groupon.”
4 cases from a variety of sources. Has been fun to try and have them all arrive on the same day!

I can’t even remember without looking at Cellartracker…
I got email from Fatcork and Shafer today, so those are definitely coming. Should probably also be Cayuse, Rivers Marie, Betz. Probably a couple I forgot, but I’ve been trying to keep it reasonable this year…
Ooooooh… now my interest is piqued. I’d like to say, “do tell” but I don’t think you will, so I’ll say instead; can’t wait to find out what this will be.
Wine Bid came this week. What’s the deelio with a lot of the bottles wrapped in tissue paper? Never seen that before. Not all of them, just one entire box and then a part of another. ![[scratch.gif]](/uploads/db3686/original/2X/4/42a16863a8714da3c1604419e3eb9206bb87aa50.gif "scratch"){kind=small}
Box of Matthiasson arrived today. Picking up my Rhys and Cowan boxes tomorrow. The wife is not amused.
