AboutHalloween 12-bottle Mystery Case

Here is the content received yesterday, I call it a great deal at $199, few keepers, some nice bottles and the rest are decent daily drinkers. Even compared to regular LB prices worked really well. Paramour was $69 by itself earlier last month. I think the regular LB prices for the wines included in the case (with some conservative estimates for the ones not yet listed as a daily) are ~$290 total.
