| Just an FYI:
Another EMail that I received. I am a Club-member of these guys.
1999 Sonoma County Cing Cepages: Usually they only offer 2 bottles @ a time ($56.00/bottle).
...This is the currect offer to Club-members: 6 bottles of 1999 Sonoma County Cing Cepages if you buy 6 bottles of 1998 Sonoma County Cing Cepages (also @ $56.00/bottle).
I sent an EMail back to them: if you want to sell me 6 bottles of 1999 Sonoma County Cing Cepages for $56.00. I will buy it. The 1998s, you can keep.
Haven't heard back from them... | | |

| interesting. the 98's can be had for the mid $30's retail. the 99's can be had for mid $60's and lower retail. this is a case where 1 + 1 does not equal 2. | | | |

| Even at those prices, they probably don't deserve to move! | | | |
