The KC connection of Wadcorp/KCBrian/rwilk_2000 are in for a share!

Now we got ourselves a party!!

We can host the release party in KC if folks are getting tired of Napa. We'll start planning now.......

Just received the Beckstoffer contract and I am pleased to say that they didn't raise the price on us this year. I am surprised as I was told that the prices were going up. We need to get a few more folks on the list in order to meet the one barrel minimum. Looks like this might be looking like a single barrel year.

BTW - I just sent out an email to the 2011 members to let them know we will start shipping the 2011's so if you didn't receive the email, let me know.

Let me know if I can answer any additional questions for you.

Don't forget I'll take a couple or three shares if it helps.
Is this years release party on, I'm close to decision day re flights etc.

Happy Friday morning to everyone. As Anne had indicated, I wanted to provide some news and adjustments to the program. Heres the details.

Bad News: Spring Mountain Vyrds has decided not to sell any additional fruit this year. So this means we are single sourced for the first time in 5 years.

Now the Good news - I signed the contract for the Rutherford GIII, so we are locked in for another year on one of the premium vineyards in the valley.

Changes - After chatting briefly with Anne, now that we are single sourced, we decided to take a page from the Hollowine Washington project and just offer straight cases instead of shares. This means that for the 2014 vintage we will be offering single cases of Rutherford GIII Cabernet. The entry point for the Napa CT project has just dropped by 1/3.

If you were in for a share above, Please PM Annerk and let her know how many cases you want. The 2014 price per case is $438 per case. We have 48 cases available and the folks on the list above have First Come, First Served basis. For those of you that decided to split a share, please contact each other and decide whether you would each want a case or if you split a case, keep that to yourselves and just send payment from a single source.

When the time comes for blending, we may use other blenders to round out the profile, but we can address that later.

Please let me know if you have any questions via PM or here on the thread.

Perfect! I was hoping for a change like this, as a full share was too much for me and I can't split it.

Ouch, that hurts

I love the structure in most Spring Mountain wines. I think it ranks behind only Red Mountain in representation in my cellar. Oh, well.
I am in for a case of the gee three.

I am in for a case. I'll let you guys know if I am in for two once the NoVA CTer's figure out how much we all want. If anyone out there would like just a few bottles and are on the mid-atlantic, PM me. We can probably work something out.

Smig,
Not sure what I'm down for but whatever it is double it.
I'll PM you re payment.
I must have almost cornered the market in CT Barrel wine ;)
