Is it really time for another one of these?? Ugh.

Quiet, you.

Happy birthday, Wine.Woot!!!

I figured this was coming. Happy Birthday wine.woot! Now we are six... which is about how many dollars I have left after six years of wine.wooting! ;-P

Holy F-bomb, another one! Let's have some fun.

Oh man... can I afford another Wine Woot-off?

Then again I'm already down 4 bottles of the fantastic Twisted Oak PS I got on the last one; it was fantastic with the Tri-Tip roast I grilled last weekend... bring it on Woot!

Why is it that, even though studies have shown that wine ages better with a screw cap, I still have a hard time purchasing said wine?

Oh, no, my wallet is crying already.

I'm not ready for another Woot-Off! yet. Just took my last 8 boxes of wine home from the office last Friday. Need a Woot-intervention!

Actually, it's not that wine ages "better" with a screw cap, just that it changes less. The change in wine allowed by cork is a very good thing for many wines. Thinking of Dunn, Ridge, Petrus, DRC, etc. For wines meant to be drunk in the 1-3 timeframe I agree a screw cap is great, but that's far from all wine.

So if I'm not at the stage where I can buy wine to let it sit on the shelf, a screw cap is nothing to be feared?

Only a few more of my first vintage & super glad to be leaving this with a WootOff!!!!

Agreed...I went w/ screw cap for sake of marketing and price point, but I also now have no concern for cork taint!

Hitting the sack...that means bedtime for those of you with minds in the gutter!!! Any who, wanted to THANK all you Wooters out there supporting my wine! I truly believe in my tagline "Serious Wines..Playful Marketing." fun yet great product as life is far too short for ALL serious booze...be kind to one another and raise a glass, CHEERS!!

Got some of this the last time around for gifts. Gave two away and had the other two for myself. Never considered myself a merlot fan, but this was great. Happy to see this again. This time these six are for me! Full bodied, rich and flavorful. Just as much fun as it sounds.

Tool-BOMB!!!

Oh how much fun it would be to get 'hammered' on a wine from toolbox.

Met the maker. Great wine for the price point.

I'm almost glad TN is not on the list. I have a feeling I'll be spending my Jeep payment on wine today. Who needs a jeep anyway when there's all this wine to drink but it does fair better when you completely miss the road!

Another one...? I can't afford this...not with the big project from work creeping behind me...

*cries self to sleep*

I haven't finish last case that was in woot. Seriously, i quite don't like it. Sorry Toolbox

I'm ready for the woot off, and want to know all about your wine...thanks for your comments on the board this early.

This is a 90 Merlot/10 Cab blend?

I'm so happy to see another Woot-Off.
Sorry I missed this merlot though.
