Perhaps I’m not the only one in need of an intervention
You can add to my intervention. Just bought 2 boxes of Sine Qua Non Estate wines from my allocation and wish listed a set of Estate magnums.

Funny you mention this. When I posted about it I had just bought two bottle. I forgot about the other three I ordered from another retailer. We are ordering pizza tonight so I’m baby-killing one and will post my thoughts later. I’m here for you.

Haven't gotten my annual maybe next year letter from Manfred yet

Please do post notes! I’m curious as I also have two 2015s but have never tried the wine as I purchased those a couple of months ago.

Agree as much as I dislike Trump, moaning and bitching about it here all day is a complete waste of time. And it’s destroying this place. Kind of ironic that so many complain about him destroying the country and they are destroying this board talking about him

Finally got my first SQN offer after waiting 9 years. Especially happy it was their EBAs
One of my close friends and regular wine drinking buddies got his first offer this round as well after waiting roughly 9 years.
Congrats. Can't remember but it's gotta be around 9 for me. Should be just round the corner
SQN allocation. 3 each 2016 Syrah Subir and 2016 Grenache Pajarito. Wish listed a second 3 pack of each.
3 x 2017 Faury Cote-Rotie
3 x 2017 Faury St Joseph VV
I’ve had and loved both, especially for the prices.

Give credit where credit is due. But good purchase on this one, can’t want to try his 2016s
Credit for what?

I introduced you to his wines. Btw, I had the rapolao tonight and it was very nice, more elegant than his 2015.

Umm no. Futronic opened one with me at least a year before you ever mentioned them to me.
Good to hear about the Rapolao.

On Sunday I was this close to doing some last minute bidding on winebid.
Then yesterday I added a bunch of wine to my cart on K&L's site. Walked away before buying.
Did the same thing again today on a winery's website.
My last purchase was on Jan 27th, Berserker's Day.
22 days and counting. 💪🏼
Expensive two days for me...
Bought some Walter Scott chards yesterday, and then today woke up to Rivers Marie's chard offering and the Bedrock offering. Hopefully it'll be the last buys for a while. Probably not though.

I believe that’s the discount, not the sell price. I did a double-take when I first saw it.

Yeah but $349 CAD is exceptional. That's $265 USD. W-S low is at JJB for $295 USD. For us Canadians, with shipping, that would equate to $400 CAD. And unless you're able to claim it as one of your two duty-free bottles, you'll pay another $200 in tax and duty.
