| Got my first offer from Salinia, and it is only being held until June 20. No shipping to CT. But they allow pick-up, and even take 10% off the purchase price for doing so. Anyone else buying and picking up who would be willing to pick mine up as well and ship it to me (at my cost, of course)? Let me know ASAP. Thanks. | | | Beta testing a new signature. |

| Salinia is in Santa Rosa about a tenth of a mile from Siduri. They are located on Coffey Lane in a Business Park, right across from Pump It Up.
Jimmy, if you are coming out later this summer I'm sure they'll hold it for you. | | | |

| Interestingly, their order form does not say. But a Google search reveals several sources that have them located in an industrial park a hop, skip and a jump from Siduri in Santa Rosa. http://www.wineweb.com/scripts/winerypg.cfm?w=39002 If you are able to make a visit, I will confirm that this is correct. Doesn't sound like there is a rush, as they do not intend to ship until just before Thanksgiving. Wine can be picked up before then, but it doesn't have to be immediate. In fact, I wouldn't want it shipped to me until the fall anyway. | | | Beta testing a new signature. |

| R8der posted as I was searching. Looks like the info I dredged up was accurate. Unfortunately, the only plans I have for West Coast travel in the forseeable future are for LaLa Land. | | | Beta testing a new signature. | |

| Jimmy - I realize you want the pick-up discount to subsidize the shipping to you - if you strke out on that, you can have it shipped to me along with my order, and I can ship to you or hand off if you are coming to the Akron/Cleveland or Pittsburgh areas. | | | |

| I'll also offer to take shipment along with my bottles, in the Denver area. Can cross ship out to you if you don't find yourself in ski country. | | | |

| Double shipping is just going to cost more. I'll send a note to Kevin and ask him to have it ready to ship. We'll just run to a UPS store while we are up there and have it shipped directly. Send me your address via PM. Chris

| Chris,
If you have any trouble at the UPS Store - some of them won't take wine shipments from individuals - I'll be happy to get the wine to Jimmy.

| Thanks Richard! Kevin already told me to not use a UPS store in Sonoma County, so I'll give it a go in Oakland from work. I shipped a case to myself in Colorado from work previously, so I'm sure it will work again! Chris
