Hey Jimmy, don't mean to be piling on, but both wtso entries here appear to be two days out of date. The flash deal has changed several times since the Pearl of the South and they've had the collector's drop turned off during their anniversary sale. (My wife would be LHAO to see me doing this, I just to give her tons of sh*t when SHE was a QA. 😁) Cheers, j

Fixed! And added the flash sale wines. Tell your wife you’d make a damn good QA 😂
