Anyone feel the new release price on the Elysian is high along with other releases? Years past they have flown off the “shelf” with an allocation of 3 max but now with an allocation of 6, you can still buy. It never use to get to second tier allocation available. I’d love to support Mike and Leah because they are great people and at this price it’s becoming unobtainable for their long time supporters. Just me thinking this?
First of 3 bottles I have. After reviewing other notes and not seeing a recent review I figured I would take one for the team. Opened for about 30 minutes and then poured. Medium to full body. Good fruit and no heat like others experienced. Thought it would have a little more flavor and seemed a little flat but still good. I don’t have enough notes because I poured a small glass and then our friends poured large glasses not knowing what I opened and then the bottle was gone. I need a hiding spot moving forward….

Popped and let sit in the cellar for an hour. Tannins very well integrated and ready to go! Drank great and wish I had more.
