A half case of Enfield. Have to try the new Chard and the Cab should be wonderful old fashioned Cali Cab in a decade or so.

The moratorium is at 84 days and counting. Last purchase was the Tondonia Blanco Reserva on Oct 1st.
If your moratorium continues past 3 months, I’d start a what are you not drinking thread

It ended on Jan 16th... so I made it to 3 1/2 months.
And I’ve bought 37 bottles in the last 30 days. 👍🏼👍🏼
