You do mean "cases", right?
If not, if you want more let me know. | | | |

| Pass.
Not that I can even do that, having been summarily dumped off the list a while ago. But I have plenty of Kistler right now and I can wait another mailer or two before I post a groveling 'Anyone want to let me piggyback off their mailer?' post. | | | www.roguefood.com -- www.cellartracker.com | |

| If anyone is interested in sharing some of my allocation let me know. I likewise have plenty of prior vintages but would like to take a few from this mailer. I am looking for sharing 8 bottles or so to fill out the 12 bottle minimum order. I have been allocated 12 Pinot's , 24 McCrea, 20 Dutton, and 12 Durell Chards.
PM me if interested. | | | |

| | 68 bottles allocated, let me know if anybody on the left side of the country want some. Didn't they typically offer the Sonoma Coast pinot on this mailer? | | | |

| 24,20, 12, 12. I'll probably find someone to take a case and wait for the Spring mailer.

| | From their perspective, it's probably just a good business practice. They get full retail for a high percentage of their production. If you can do that with a 20,000 case per year operation, more power to you. | | | |
