Got some Rivers-Marie Summa, Sonoma Coast, Silver Eagle, and Anderson Valley Pinot Noir. Didn't hesitate on Outpost True Vineyard this year and miss the boat like last year. Waiting on Myriad to go live for my usual Dr. Crane.

I did exercise some self restraint this year, and ordered in sensible quantities.


We'll have to do a 2014 Outpost True Vineyard vs. 2015 True Vineyard sometime.

Sandlands' marketing / public relations department probably monitors this site and thought that they were (a) doing you a favor since your credit cards are probably on fire and (b) doing the rest of the wine buying public a solid by giving them a chance to buy a few bottles before you scooped them all up.

Not sure I can afford entire allocation but I'll max on Trousseau and Syrah for sure.

Oh, and I bought a little treat for the Offlineorama.

Tomorrow I attend a tasting with the winemaker from Mouton Noir. I know nothing about the wines other than what I have read online. One of the owners from the LWS invited us so we will go and see if it interests us.

This is similar to our approach. I think I took a 3 pack rather than a 4 pack on something. But a lot of wine.

We Pobegad 09 J Tardy Fixin "La Place" last night. Not very complex, but absolutely delicious
Just like your situation, the deal was irresistible
