| Did any body buy these wines: 2002 Gary's PN, 2002 Pisoni PN and 2002 SLH Syrah. Roar stated that they should be shipping all order out in October, has any body tasted the 2002 release or receive there 2002 allocation yet. | | |

| The Pre-Release Order form says;
Orders will begin shipping October 1 to avoid warm weather transit. Allow 4 weeks for shipping.
I have not received my order yet. | | | |

FOUR WEEKS! How are they shipping it? On carrier pigeons that take a vacation halfway?!?!  | | | |

Don't be silly...they are using eagles, but they only have four of them and each one can only carry so much wine. | | | |

| I don't know about the 4 week estimate, but when I e-mailed them recently, I was told that they would ship out Oct. 18th.

| Hey Andrew,
Yep, that' me on my Hoo Koo E Koo. The picture is from a local mountain bike race I did a few years ago. I finished 5th that day.
Good to have you back on the boards after your prison escape! I read about all the hard work you guys did on Brian's WS blog. | | | |

| Thanks for the welcome everyone. I'm looking forward to trying these wines as I missed the Spring mailer, though I know I'll be reluctant to open my lone bottle of Pisoni any time soon.
Was anyone able to secure bottles beyond their allocation?

| Wow, that was quick! UPS truck just dropped off my order of Roar wines. Although its been raining over here lately, at least that dropped the temperature to around 60 degrees.
I guess I just have the LWC mailer to wait for this year... | | | |
