44

Did you realize that your name is an anagram of Arby’s? Did you know I had lunch there for the first time in AGES yesterday? And that it was actually pretty decent?

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.

45

Only Sandler 6 pack and Ladd Mixed 6 & 2011 3 packs for me. I have an upcoming order for a cult Jura producer (no, not Overnoy) that I need to put money aside for. I really think I’m going to need to go on wine probation after that. pileon

+1

47

Limited myself to ordering from those I have yet to try, so I bought from Ladd (2011 6pk), Siduri, and Jean Edwards (2011). If I had a bigger budget this year, Sandler and Cabot would have been repeats for sure.

48

I bought Oregon! (Patricia Green vine age, Biggio Hamina 6 pack).

51

This year, my money went to Siduri, Liquid Farm and Enkidu.

Had I not restrained myself, I would have also ordered from Random Wine (I still have a few bottles at home), Sandler and Wilde Farm.

I know I’m missing out on some good stuff, but combined with an unexpected Rhys purchase and an upcoming trip to NY next month for IPOB, my wallet (and the lack of storage space in my apartment) can’t really handle it all. Le sigh.

52

Well, played sir. Well played.

53

Harrington 4 pack cork dork special
Ladd 2011 PN 6 pack including a chard
Falcone 3 chard 3 cab (peace offering to the warden)
Sandler PN 6 pack

54

I had to bring it on my first BD - went about 33% over the budget but I’m not too sorry about that. [cheers.gif] In for:

Cabot (Syrah 6 pack)
Sandler (Pinot 6 pack)
Riverain (Syrah 3 pack)
Ladd (Pinot 3 pack)
JEC (Napa cab 3 pack)
Halcon (Alturas Magnum)

Big thanks to Todd and co. and all of the wineries/vendors that participated!

55

While I was lurking during last BD, this was my first participating and it was costly but wonderful:

Veleta - 6 pack plus oil and vinegar and a 6 pack to my son
Briceland - mixed 6
Random - the full offer
and Liquid Farms - all that high spirits and talk of pink crack carried me away

Wanted many more but budget and total lack of storage got in the way … plus imagining what the office team says as the cartons arrive! Happily I still have some cheap Last Bottle stuff under my desk to share instead.

And was saved by the Flannery offer of NY Steaks since I really prefer Rib Eye … which I will have to order soon!

What a great day - and great way to get introduced to some new wine. Thanks Todd and all!

56

This was the second Berserker Day for me.
Looking forward to trying wines from these producers:

Bailiwick
Loring

Received my shipment from Windy Oaks already. That was fast.

6 bottles from Match
Cabot Syrah 6-er

59

Sojourn 6 pack of Pinot (plus the two free bottles)
Jean Edwards 6 pack
Sandler Pinot 6 pack
Bailiwick 6 pack
Lagier Meredith vertical

I’m going to get hammered with taxes/duties when I bring all of these back into Canada.

Got stuck working and missed Lagier Meredith. :frowning:

This year:
Biggio Hamina
Congruence
Sojourn
Patty Green ( clone - apropos of my thread)
Liquid Farm
Zepaltas
Betwixt

Almost pulled trigger on a few but had to rein in after Rhys and Myriad.

I think I need to drink more
