| Ouch... first price increase in quite a few years. They must be paying attention to the Aubert prices... dammit! | | | |

| I'd buy the Pinot if offered....but the chard is not my style. If nobody is taking their Pinot allocation I'm in for a few bottles. The stuff I opened from 2002 has been some of the best Pinot I've ever had.

| My pinots are up for grabs. Just buy 6 bottles of Chardonnay to fill the case, and I'll have it shipped directly to you if you're in a wine-friendly state.   | | | Cheers, y'all | |

| As much as I enjoy their Pinots, and yes, even some of their Chardonnays, this is a total pass for me. I have enough wine to last me for a while and I now get to be picky about what I buy. Hell, I think I am not even on their list anymore. But that would not stop me in past years from piggybacking an order on with one of you all. Not this time.

| I don't want to buy the whole allocation. Cash-flow is the greatest right now. If I buy less I just hope they don't cut me back of the cuvée offering in the Fall. | | | |

| Hi.
I am in San Diego. I would like to try a Pinot. If someone would be willing to share a bottle or two from their allocation, or collection, that would be fantastic. I would prefer local, but if it must be shipped, I would prefer to have it shipped once the weather cools down.
Thanks
