Just about all of these selections come from an appropriately reputable AVA for the varietal! What side of Alexander Valley do the Cab and Merlot come from? Either way, I’m pretty sure '07 was killer around Sonoma too. Does anyone know much about the 2009 Pinot and Chard? This seems fairly recent and I haven’t heard any real positive or negative buzz about '09 yet.
You’re right on about the 2007 wines, it was a really solid vintage. In regards to your question about the 2009 vintage, I am pleased to say it was just about perfect! Our pinot and chards were especially concentrated that year. The bordeaux vareties were much more fruit driven than usual.
Hey this is Dan signing out for the night. Big bottling day tomorrow… will sign back in post coffee in the am to answer any questions you have. Happy wooting!
Actually now that you mention cheese, it has been too long since Wine.Woot has done a cheese offering.
I’m happy to wait until I have all the information but even though most of the time it’s a good discount more power to you if you want to spring on something that could be one of the rare low discount offerings that pop up.
I think Cesare must have some kind of internet time travel machine thingamagig. He travels ahead to see the Woot offer and then travels back, and… No. Wait… He travels back and then … oh it’s just too much for my simple brain.
Assuming the exhaustion hasn’t gotten to me and my math still holds up there’s approximately an 8 month gap between the first and the last being bottled so I wonder how that would work in terms of overlap in the drinkability. Being able to have one bottle after another come into the window to drink would definitely be a good way to experience the whole case if it works out that way.
