I'm in! I don't think I have this, and I love Peter's wines.

Dammit! I shouldn't be buying...

Anyway: You are not the post police. Nobody here should have to justify expressing their opinion just because you dislike said opinion.

Thank you -- that is all.

Well said. You should post more often!

And seriously good wine.

I thought the crystals automatically made the wine good.

Great stuff. Stupid VA laws, though.

And here I thought the idea was that the stick was supposed to shake itself. Shows what I know!

Damn Wellington. I will have the debt collectors start calling the winery.

He's also been critical of the points system, publicly here on this forum. Get mad at him for that also, while you're at it. (Edit: I see PW jumped in and said the same thing as I just did).

Quite a lot of wineries are moving to Biodynamic/Organic. Its pretty fun watching the sheep run around the vineyards.

Hoo boy, were you around for the unloading of the sheep video debacle? That was a fun one. I forget which winery was involved but there were a lot of upset wooters....

I'll help clear this one out even though I've got 4 unopened at home.....

I give the idea 89 burried hornfulls and a dash of lambs blood for good measure.

Congrats on being the person formerly known as the "wooter to blame for sellout" but now known only as the generic "last wooter to woot". A much harder distinction to earn than "first sucker" yet hardly ever recognized.

This is a family favorite, it's one of the only wines we can all agree on. It's worth every penny, I would buy more, but already have two & like others have said my wine cellar is full.

Don't forget the little people. Wait, is it ok to say "little people"? Vertically challenged?

Been forever since I wooted, and I'm seriously looking forward to trying one of these and aging the other.

This vintage has everything we want in a reserve wine: concentration and intensity, complexity, seamless balance. FWIW the upcoming issue of Wine Enthusiast gives it a 94 rating.

Have two bottles in the stash, but missed this offer. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!

Anyone who missed the 05 or 06 and wants to swap some bottles of those for this to get the vertical gt hold of me!
