I got an allocation today too (apparently if you missed the buy button from the first release, this is the second chance). You might get mine, I can't make myself swallow that pill.

I only signed up for the list last November. Not holding out much hope that I'll make it on this year. I've kept my list buying this Fall to a very scant few so I think I could swing this potentially should the opportunity arise.

Sorry to be Debbie Downer, but...
Yields will probably be down significantly next year and not much improved for the '16 vintage.
Alex said there were about 2000 people on the waiting list last year (not sure how many people have signed up since then).
So if you get an offer, pounce quickly. I missed the first 2 years because they sold out in about 15 minutes.

I've got time on my side and have no problem waiting if that's what's in the cards. My only hope is that by the time I make it on to the list it's not because spots have simply opened up because pricing has gotten crazy and my first allocation comes with an eye popping smack in the face.

I do believe they increased case production to low 400's for the 2015 vintage

I had this problem a while back. I bought a 60 bottle cooler in addition to my Le Cache. Problem solved. I guess we shouldn't send you links to wine cabinet resellers?

Status: offline 		The Walls Winery - Concrete Mama Syrah
Goes on sale November 2nd at 10:00AM Pacific

The Walls Winery in Walla Walla is only a couple of years old but is well funded and has been producing some nice wines both reds and whites.
The reds are Rhone varietals, generally from Red Mountain.
Concrete Mama is their first offering using fruit from The Rocks District. It's a hint of things to come since they are planting an 18 acer estate vineyard in The Rocks in the spring.

So if you're on the Cayuse wait list, this might be a wine worth trying.

And a female winemaker! Looks interesting. And a sweet price point as well.

I made the list four or five releases ago and have yet to purchase, I would not be concerned about getting dropped.
I would like to try their Chardonnays but I am really trying to cut back. Really.

In for a 6-pack. These should last a good 20 yrs (my $.02)

Status: offline 		I got a call yesterday from my local ABC store saying that I have a couple of wine packages to pick up... WTF? I don’t have any clue as to what they are as I thought... oh, just remembered that I had Rasa send me my bud’s wine since they are off to Patagonia. That makes me feel a bit better about my poor memory.
