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.

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!

Allright, I'll abandon my spending plan already. Bought a few bottles. It's just a little slip, right????

I was allocated 12/8/2/2 and only bought 3 Grahams. Between this, Freeman and Sandler I feel a few of each does me fine.

Ordered 2/2/2 (skipped the chard) online.

I got my notice via email. You might want to email Ed to see what the status is.

Just rec'd my August West shipment!

What are you guys talking about?  My 3.5 cases have been in offsite storage now for two weeks!

Well, okay, it arrived last week, but I finally got to the office today and found it.

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.
