I think I got in at the last minute just before running out for lunch! Came back to see it was closed. Glad I got my 8-10-12 (to go with the '09 from last year).
Still working on capturing all this. Thank you all so much! Of note, some women buyers today. Maybe 5%? That’s high. I know your wives and girlfriends and sisters and mothers are fans, but it is very, very male dominated when it comes to ordering and geeking out over wine in general!
Some of us women don’t fit the stereotype, Merrill. I told my husband this morning I might need him to hide my iPad. He responded with a shake of his head and the comment that I don’t have any room in my Eurocaves. My comeback was we need to drink more wine.
Glad you had good response and WE look forward to enjoying the fruit of your labor.
No, we don’t fit the stereotype, Nancy. Remember, I am a wine geek/consumer/collector, too. Thank you for your order today! My female buyers are very discerning, and the women who come to enjoy a glass with me have very astute palates.
I wish more women would make wine. I think many of them are excellent at following their sensibilities and instincts instead of assessing competitors or trying to impress. Some of us guys like nuance. (Or at least can fake it… )
Thank you, Dennis…how nice to read after a long but fantastic day. I try to keep my eyes straight ahead…this is a very competitive business, but I try to focus on what is important to me, personally.
Looking forward to my first EMH wines later this year. Assuming tyou ship in th spring, and the bottles settle for a bit, what do you think is a good drinking window for the 08-10-12? My cellaring space and patience is limited-lol. Thanks.
