Typo in the wine name, it's Pozzuolo.

I really like this wine because it's in a glass bottle. Also it has a cork that keeps most of the air out.

Does Woot have something against the Old Dominion? We haven't been able to even considering burying many of the wines offered lately.

Some guy rates the 2008 a "Meh," but adds that it represents a good QPR.

Just can't get excited over this when I compare it to yesterdays deal...easy pass.

They are working on it. Bunch of legal yada yada about third party shippers, etc. See link;

I think it has something to do with Virginia's conservative political background, but that's another topic, not for here.

I'm waiting for the day I can buy again. Hope it's not a long wait.

Pretty sure it's more about local wholesalers making things unnecessarily difficult for the competition. And didn't you hear? We're a blue state (or at least purple) these days!

He was the senator from West Virginia...but we take your point.

Yeah, it does seem to be all about the commerce. There was a bunch of talk about it in both of yesterday's Wellington comment forums, and a separate thread on the topic here.

What about these wines? Does anyone want to talk about them? There are other forums for discussing Virginia and prohibition.
