Bob, is everyone ordering the Pinot along with the Cab, or are some sticking with the Cab only ?

Looks like over 80%. Although I did get one email telling me that since I was no longer focused, that person was not going to buy Cab anymore.  Customers, go figure.

Interesting email.  I figured you would have taken much more flack for going to the blend approach vs. straight cab.Â

In another irony, who'd have thought that wine from a techie at Sun would end up on the table for a GM, 3 directors and me at a MSFT wine dinner?Â

Aargh!  Spam filter have gotten a lot more aggressive than last year.  I use Easymail to send out the messages, but there is something in the headers that causes lots of rejections.  Instead of my expectation for taking 10 minutes to get the first wave out, it took 4 hours.  Now to get the post cards out...
I would bet for the appropriate bribe you could get a fellow techie to help

2nd wave just hit. Picked up 3/3... Happy the pinot was still around. I like the Bressler house cab.... so its worth a shot!

Thanks for the ground shipping option also!
