Been a long time since I've had it. It's a Super Tuscan style, and likely to be fairly big and Michael's wines tend to be excellent.

She meant those still with Credits. There ain't no actual vouchers still out there. I finally used the last of my credits on the Jonata duo from a couple weeks ago. So that's my last purchase from Lot18 for now.

Just picked up one of each ('87, '89, '91). I'd love to share one or more of these with some bay area wooters who are up for pitching in to try some of cathy's old stuff to see what the stuff in your cellar may someday taste like :-)

I just recently had some 1985 St. Clement Napa Cab I also got from Invino. Still had some life, very smooth. I compared it to the 2007 which was (IMHO) over-oaked and bomb-ish. I hope cathy's stuff is as superlative as I have heard.

Nice! I grabbed an 87 due to a SIWBM (I thought it was worth partially violating for the first release of Corison!)

Thx! I'm pretty sure that I got the last '87 that was available. I have 5 cases coming this week, and I really need to not buy for a while. However, these are special circumstances!

I have two accounts- this 'anonymous' username for commenting, as well as a 'purchasing' account which is my real name. Apologies for the white box on the left.

Also, in the interest of full disclosure- I'm ITB, selling wine for a living. None of my wines have ever been featured on Woot though, so don't fear the shilling.

Damn! Wish I had noticed this sooner. The '87 & '91 are already sold out. All that's left is the '89 which I've already had (just this past June) and although it was awesome, I'd have loved to try one of the other two vintages. Still considering getting the '89 since I do have $20 of credit with them. Sadly that still makes it cost $4 more than when I got the first bottle back in 2010 from WineBid.

EDIT: Got the bottle. In reality I wasn't trying to make a decision, since the decision was already made. I was just making myself believe that I had to think about it.

Your CT review almost pushed me over the edge to pick up an 89, but I'm trying to be good!

Invino has Corison right now. The '87 and '91 sold out already, but there are still 22 of the '89 available. Got lucky and got the last '91.

Bartholomew Park Winery up on Rue La La (invite link) today and tomorrow. They're selling the exact same wines that were on woot a little over a year ago (2006 Merlot, Zin, & Syrah), except these are $15 more with slightly higher shipping. So if you really liked last year's woot and are willing to pay more to reload, or still regret missing it, here's your chance.

Or at least some free shipping. Maybe we can convince Woot to get some Pine Ridge over here. WD did put it up on RLL after all, and it's been a while since we've seen it around here.

Wellington is up on RueLaLa (invite link) today. In their Thanksgiving Boutique, along with a bunch of other wineries.

Cool thing: Single-bottle offers, so you can get a nice little mix pack from different wineries if you want.

Great price (woot price) for the 07 Estate Zin, and also has Davis 08 PN, and some Fess Parker Riesling. And something called Ladera, and a couple of others too.

Has anyone tried the Davis 08 RRV? Thinking about picking up a bottle since I've already got the free month shipping ticking on RLL.

Wish I could get around the shipping, as I would only want a couple bottles of the Wellington. I'm also surprised it's the same discount as WOOT, usually RLL doesn't quite do as well, as far as I can tell.

Ladera is good stuff, I bought a couple on WOOT a long time ago, and bought an '04 off of Lot18 with credits and had it with a nice dinner. Very nice good depth Napa cabs...

Scott Harvey's Vineyard 1869 Zinfandel (2007) is on Lot18 (invite link) for an indefinite time. Pricing is $70 for 2. They're normally $45 each from the winery, so you're getting $10 off per bottle. Free shipping with 2 sets. WE 90, and also averaging 92 in CT. Note that they are on the "Select" tab, not the "Featured" tab.

TODAY wil 6pm EDT on all Lot 18's wines there's Free Shipping!

the Harvey's still not a good enough discount though. The Select Tab seems to have some good deals now and then, though.

I went for the Qupe 06 Syrah though with my reamining credits!

Almost went in for the Qupe, but I think I already have a bottle of that purchased from the tasting room that hasn't been properly inventoried and is sitting at my girlfriends.

I bit on the Highwayman 12 duo which actually seems to be a pretty great deal (close to 50% off) with free shipping given the crappy deals we've been seeing on Lot 18 recently.

I used a $20 credit 2 weeks ago on the 2006 SPELLwine Napa Cabernet Sauvignon Half Case for $8.33 each. Should have grabbed another half case at $70. That would have made it $10 each shipped out of pocket. I think it sold out in just a couple hours. Very nice.
