| If all you want is the HSS, it's a completely seperate list (you dont have to buy off one to get the other). Relentless, well, I dont know about that, maybe someone else knows for sure. | | | |

| I think you'll be able to find a number of people on this board who would share their allocation. Mailer is not out yet, but I think around ealy April if I remember correctly?!? | | | |

| Well, if we're taking early indications of interest, count me in if anyone wants to share an HSS allocation. I have been given pretty good chances of securing some through my local retailer, but I'd rather help someone here keep up their allocation. | | | |

| I'll have extra, but you might be able to get it cheaper through someone else here (no double shipping if someone else is in your area). | | | |

| It's interesting to me that so many are interested in the HS mailer. HS is one of the few top-end Cali wines that I seeeverywhere in retail shops for about the same pirce as the mailing list... | | | |

| John - I hope you're talking about the 1998 vintage which I've seen everywhere for approxmiate release price. Problem is, all other prior vintages are no where to be found at retail near release price ($125 or so I believe). Vintages like '94-97 (all receiving 98-99 pts RP) are closer to $200+ per bottle.... Which wine shops do you frequent and are they open today?  | | | |

| STW, the 1997 had a release price of $160. I was able to purchase two bottles from stores. The price of the 1997 soon went through the roof though. I've seen it upwards of $300. | | | |
