| Allocations are up and running. Prices include ground shipping.
2006 Graham's Pinot Noir ($48) 2006 Rosella's Pinot Noir ($48) 2006 Rosella's Syrah ($42) 2006 Rosella's Chardonnay ($42)
Ed's wines just seem to get better and better. This is one of the wineries that I am buying more of in lieu of money that would have been allocated to new (or in some cases, year-old) ventures. | | | Beta testing a new signature. |

| I'm on the fence here. Yes, Ed's wines are awesome, but I have to cut somewhere.

| Ed said he had 220 orders as of two hours ago. However, he said he was pretty sure he could fulfill wish list requests from what he had received so far. He kept allocations tight so that he wouldn't put himself in a sticky situation.
I'm asking for 12/12/6/6....this is one of my bigger orders of the year!

| Arrived in CT today, in egg crate shippers. This will make my daughter happy, as she hates it when I bring home all that styrofoam that our recycling company won't take. | | | Beta testing a new signature. | |
