Arrived via e-mail this afternoon.  For the first time there is a 2 week window in which allocations are guaranteed for senior members on the list.

"We are happy to announce that the Williams Selyem Fall 2007 release is open to you as indicated in the letter you recently received. This is the first time that we have been able to guarantee your allocation and you are among a very small group of long-term customers who have been given this opportunity.


Guaranteed Allocation Details

From today until the release opens to all customers on August 13th, you have the opportunity to purchase your full allocation online without worrying about the products being sold out. Once the release opens on August 13th, orders will be processed on a first come, first served basis, as in the past. Additional requests are not guaranteed and will be filled after the release if any products are remaining. We do expect to sell out quickly this fall, so I urge you to order during the guaranteed allocation period."



My allocation:

(0) 2005 Litton Estate Vineyard Pinot $100
(3) 2005 Vista Verde Vineyard Pinot - $49
(3) 2005 Bucher Vineyard Pinot - $54 (+ $5)
(2) 2005 Flax Vineyard Pinot - $54
(2) 2005 Peay Vineyard Pinot - $54 (+$5)

Wow, they are really pushing the prices. I think I have finally gotten off The List.

12 Pinot Noir bottlings?

Gotta wonder how many would be bottled if the winery was called Williams-Siduri?

And so how many of either have you had?   

I wish I was on the senior member list for WS.

I actually consider myself lucky enough to have tasted 7 or 8 of the (now older vintages of) W-S Pinots at a Christie's pre-auction tasting in LA about 6 years ago. I'd have to go dig up the catalog notes to recall all of them, but I do remember the1991 Allen and Olivet Lane, 1994 Ferrington and Rochioli, 1996 Precious Mtn. and Riverblock to be among the most amazing PN's I have tasted.

Can't say I have much experience with the Siduri line up though.

Any less senior people receive the email/mailer yet? I have been buying for 2+ years and haven't heard anything yet.
