Mark do I need to remind you that your job here is to make people give up on the list, not hang on? :)

Been on the wait list for 2 years. Although I DID just land the Horsepower list, with an allocation for the 2012 Tribe. However, at $115 per bottle it is significantly more expensive than anything for sale at Cayuse, including Bionic Frog. I am sure it will be worth it but the price is a bit off putting considering the youth of the vineyard.

Though I did buy a bottle of Cameron Nebbiolo @ $70 and one bottle of Lilllian @ $75.

So after my heartless rejection from Cayuse yesterday, I get an email from my friends at Rhys saying save your money because we are going to sell you some wine at the end of January. So it just proves everything happens for a reason, as if I would have bought Cayuse, I wouldn't have as much money to spend on Rhys. Good news as I love their wines.

It's that time of year to bump the Cayuse Wait List roll call! No soup for me again. ...been waiting since 1879. [;)]

When Reynvaan first came out at $45 per bottle and they had Christophe as a consulting wine maker I felt they were the ***. Several vintages in with stratospheric price increases and tasting at every release I am starting to doubt that they can hold their own without Christophe as the consulting wine maker. Yes they have the sites... that said I have been less impressed with the recent wines at the new tariff. I am supper curious how this turns out as I was buying their cabernet sauvignon based on site alone... but have been less convinced the last few years. I honestly suspect that if things don't change the first weekend of April this year that I will stop tasting there on release weekend as there are too many great alternatives at a lower tariff. quote:* ORIGINAL: mye quote: ORIGINAL: Sourdough Me 3!

Sourdough -> RE: Cayuse (1/6/2016 7:29:28 AM)
Good point mwest! My Reynvaan preorders will likely slow as a result of their prices. Still good but lots of good juice for $70 to $100 a bottle. As a relative newbie on Cayuse I feel confident that by the time I get my allocation I won't care for being retired I envision drinking on what I have and slowly dropping my expenditures over time! Salud!

MindMuse -> RE: Cayuse (1/6/2016 3:52:31 PM)
I made the list last September, after six years, two months, twelve days (i.e., July 2009) for those of you gauging your chances.

GalvezGuy -> RE: Cayuse (1/7/2016 11:27:07 AM)
None for me. That means if I get in next year I will have spent over seven years on the list.

mc2 wines -> RE: Cayuse (1/7/2016 12:47:58 PM)
The question: Is Christophe still making wine by the time we get off the Cayuse wait list? I'm not sure the odds are in our favor.

Slye -> RE: Cayuse (1/7/2016 2:15:28 PM)
Someone just posted on Winebeserkers that they had heard from an inside source that the current wait for the No Girls list is 6 years. I guess that means Cayuse is at least that long?

We did that a few months ago as well. To our taste GOK was more complex and I preferred although interesting because we drank with a broader crowd (not as wine-intense) and many of them preferred the No Girls.

Interesting that they can predict that No Girls is a 6 year wait when the label itself has not been around for 6 years.

Though it may have to do with the length of the list and their current production projections -- as well as possible drops.

vinopkm -> RE: Cayuse (1/8/2016 4:20:03 PM)
This thread made me want to email No Girls, within 5 mins this was their response. Great customer service response time. I signed up same day and still waiting. I think priority was made to Cayuse members, if memory serves me right. "Oh, sorry about the silence Patrick. You are still on the list and we are working hard to expand the membership and quickly as we can. The production of wine is quite limited and there were thousands of people who signed up on the first day the wine was offered in – just as you did. Your entry is time stamped at 12:36 – you can’t be far down the list! We currently in an ordering cycle and it’s possible that some people might not take their allocation this year and we’ll be able to add more people to the Mailing List. It’s possible you could get the offering next month. But if not, you’re in great position for an offering next vintage."

champagneinhand -> RE: Cayuse (1/9/2016 2:59:52 PM)
Over8ed. I asked them to remove me from the list a year ago, but I got the rejection letter. Thanks but no thanks. Anybody wanting my 2009 GOK can have it for what I paid at Total wines. So many great wines to play this marketing game. I guess I need to unsubscribe too.
