You mentioned price and minimums as issues -- would it be helpful in securing Howell Mountain fruit if we agreed to increase the cost of our shares and/or expand the amount we'll be buying?

I won't presume to speak for anyone else on the board - but I'd be willing to do either or both if it helped.

Status: offline 		The price almost doubled on us AP and I no longer have an option to go back and get it. I can already tell you the price will go up this year. Beckstoffer's added a premium of ~8% to their fruit. I just got a No go from Stagecoach, so we are on to other sources.

I will keep everyone posted, but please know that when I get the okay from a source, we will need to move quickly and I will be asking for checks quickly because I will need to sign off and most likely put a deposit down on the fruit to secure it.

Stay tuned.

More details to come as soon as I complete the math and get the contract out to Annerk.

Per Dave:

A little change this year, since Annerk is on an extended vacation during June, I am accepting the deposits directly to my mailing address where I will manage them from there. You can always pay in full and for my dear friends across the pond, the typical Wire fees will apply. (18$ this year)

Please make payment out out EldeVin LLC and mail to

EldeVin LLC
22 Audubon Way
Novato, CA 94949

I'll be sending my payment to above.

Is there a reason why the spring mountain source is top secret? I only ask as I have a decent amount of spring mountain in my collection.

Status: offline 		the source has asked that we keep there private for the time being. I feel that if we decide to continue working with them they will be comfortable with us and our project to communicate who they are, the vineyard name and possibly get a name vineyard designate on the label.

BTW - for the 2010 and beyond project, I just noticed a label of cabernet that didnt state the actual name of the vineyard, but did state that the wine was a "Single vineyard wine" so this may be a way to put a little more clarity on our Rutherford, single vineyard label.

Just a thought.
