If you look at CT about 40% delivered and 60% pending. Not here yet but since there is no plan to open them for several years it is okay with me.

The Thomas Pinot Noir mailer is on the way. John only uses email mail and the phone, no email releases for him. I am on the fence, I want to buy but have spent way too much this month. That he sells in set packages does not help either. If you are forced to buy in sets of three it is not that bad, but sets of six is harder for me to accept.

Let me be the first to whisper in your ear....buy buY BUY!

Just curious - have any of you Thomas buyers received your wine yet? I have not and it seems unusually late.

While I generally agree with you, I like to taste one in the first six months just get an idea of how it is. The rest typically sit.

Ben,

Some have but quite a few haven't. Thomas ran into some trouble with bottling right around shipping time so a good portion of his list will get their wine shipped sometime after the first of the year.

Thanks Joe.

I was a bit worried that maybe he had a medical emergency.
He's sort of a one man show, and destains moderns methods of communication.
I love that about him.
I don't want to bother him if he's working through it.
I'm going to let it sleep for years anyway.

I know that's the way Myriad works - previous purchasers get first dibs, with the general release coming a week later. Not sure with Rivers-Marie since it's been a couple years since we ordered.

So busted!

I just looked, and Betz is still 6.4 % of my cellar, and is 5.6 % of my bottles consumed. The real issue is my advanced age, and when these will be ready to drink.

Sandlands
We plan to release our 2016 wines on Wednesday, January 17th to our customers who have previously purchased from us. On Tuesday, January 23rd we will make an offer to those who have recently signed up for our mailing list.

Wines to be released
2016 California Chenin blanc- 12 barrels produced
2016 Amador County Chenin blanc- 10 barrels produced
2016 Sonoma County Trousseau noir- 7 barrels produced
2016 Santa Lucia Highlands Syrah- 3 barrels produced
2016 Contra Costa County Carignane- 4 barrels produced
2016 Contra Costa County Mataro- 8 barrels produced
