McClean Private Reserve Syrah (6)

Blinking!

Almost gone…

gone.

Yeah! Got 2! just before the buzzer….

My SIWBM held :frowning:
I was tempted and my wine buying inhibitions were lowered enough just now - to find that everybody else decided for me in the end.

bitter sweet - Hurrah, hurrah - bye bye Syrah

Yes, I think we’ve finally seen the last of it.

My SIWBM didn’t hold. I need to find a place to hide this when it arrives, lest I deal with the ever more painful SWMBOWBM.

Looking at the last line of your post this almost literally a case of “Que syrah, syrah.”

Inquiring, wondering, minds; did WD pick up the juice still in the tanks for us to see later as a WW?

That would be awesome!

I think it’s being sold as “One Last Syrah” as pointed out by andreaserben in an earlier post.

It’s one of three wines showcased on the McClean X Vineyards website.

“Wines available for purchase at all Whole Foods, Pavilions, and Gelson’s in Southern California.”

That website gives zero info. Other than showing us some cool bottle art. I will have to hit some of those stores and check the price point.

And the contact email address comes back:

I contacted Steve about this … it is NOT the wine from his father’s vineyard.
